(a)-(d) The Town Planning Scheme sets out management and maintenance requirements for the developer or its nominee, and the implementation of the Scheme is the responsibility of the Shire of Harvey. Neither the Minister for Planning nor the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage has a role in giving effect to resolutions of the Shire of Harvey to transfer land it may have in its possession to another entity.
