Community Improvement Districts Act 2025

If a CID proposal achieves the required support in a CID proposal ballot, the Authority must send a copy of the proposal, and a report on the result of the ballot, to each local council whose area is within the boundaries of the CID with a request that the local council notify the Authority whether the local council supports the proposal or not.

A local council must give the notice, with the reasons for the local council’s decision, to the Authority within the period specified by the Authority, being a period of not less than 60 days.

Nothing in subsections (1) and (2) prevents a local council that has, in accordance with the subsections, notified the Authority that the local council does not support a CID proposal from rescinding its decision and giving a further notice to the Authority that the local council now supports the CID proposal.

The regulations may specify the way in which a local council must—

make the decision on whether to support a CID proposal or not, and

notify the Authority whether the local council supports the CID proposal or not, and

give the reasons for the decision.
