Community Titles Act 2018

Before land can be subdivided by a community scheme —

as set out in Division 2, the Planning Commission must approve a community development statement for the community scheme; and

if a community development statement is approved for the land then, as set out in Division 3 —

a plan of subdivision must be approved under the Planning and Development Act 2005; and

a scheme plan, or an amendment of the scheme plan, for the community titles scheme must be approved under the Planning and Development Act 2005 after completion of —

the works necessary for the subdivision; and

for a community titles (building) scheme, the construction or modification of the scheme buildings necessary for the subdivision.

The Planning Commission will approve a community development statement only if it makes a decision that subdivision by a community scheme is an appropriate form of subdivision for the particular land.
