Power to grant licences
7 Power to grant licences
The chief executive officer may grant a licence on such terms and conditions as he thinks fit to any person for the erection or construction of a jetty or for the maintenance and use of any jetty.
The chief executive officer may by instrument in writing signed by him delegate to an officer the power conferred on him by subsection (1).
Where the erection or construction of a jetty is required to be approved under the Swan and Canning Rivers Management Act 2006 section 70, or under the Metropolitan Region Scheme or the Swan Valley Planning Scheme as those terms are defined in the Planning and Development Act 2005, a licence shall not be granted under this section —
unless that approval has been granted; or
on any term or condition that is contrary to or inconsistent with an approval so granted.
If an approval referred to in subsection (3) has been granted for the erection or construction of a jetty, a licence shall not be refused under this section but may be granted, in accordance with subsection (3)(b), subject to compliance with any condition.
