Plans of Management
The Crown Land Act 1989 provides for preparing plans of management for Crown reserves in consultation with the community. Defined principles of Crown land management underpin the management and use of Crown land.
Crown Reserve Plans of Management
Plans of management can be prepared for Crown reserves. These plans may be initiated by reserve Trusts, Lands, or the Minister for Land and Water Conservation.
Following preparation, a draft plan of management for a Crown reserve needs to be placed on public exhibition for not less than 28 days. Public comments are taken into account before the Minister considers adopting the plan.
These plans become regulatory instruments, which bind the reserve trust and can give statutory authority to other types of plans, such as conservation management plans for heritage components.
For more information or assistance refer to the Reserve Trust Handbook Chapter 5: Plans of management (PDF 50 kb)
