๐Ÿ“œ Community Titles Bill 2018

Assented toLABill 8128 June 2018

The Community Titles Bill 2018 introduces a new form of land tenure in Western Australia, allowing for the subdivision of land into community schemes with up to three tiers. It establishes community titles and governs the operation of these schemes, offering a more flexible alternative to the existing Strata Titles Act.

Impact

Developers, property owners, and local governments are affected. It allows for more complex mixed-use developments and potentially more vibrant communities, but also introduces new administrative and management structures.

Key Changes

["Introduces community schemes with up to three tiers of ownership.", "Creates community corporations for each scheme.", "Provides a framework for planning and development of community schemes."]
