What is a Plan of Management?

    The Local Government Act (1993) requires Councils to prepare Plans of Management (POM) for all land classified as community land. All public land is required to be classified as either 'community land' or 'operational land'. The Local Government Act (1993) allows for generic plans of management that cover a range of community land across the City, and for specific plans of management that cover a specific area of community land, such as Poppethead Park in Kitchener. 

    The Crown Land Management Act (2016) requires Councils to include all Crown land that they have been appointed to manage as Crown Land Manager within a plan of management, in accordance with the Local Government Act (1993)
