sec.15 Procedure for amending zoning map for particular purposes
The authority may amend the zoning map (the old zoning map ) under this section for any of the following purposes— to show land in the area that is the subject of a registered cooperative management agreement; to make a change to the boundary of a zone that is a minor change under section 16 ; to show the location of existing community services infrastructure not shown on the zoning map, and to insert or change the boundary of a zone by reference to the location of the community services infrastructure; to change the boundary of a zone the authority is satisfied is incorrectly shown on the zoning map by reference to the actual location of a geographical feature, road or structure; to correct a minor error or make another change that is not a change of substance. The authority may amend the old zoning map by— preparing another zoning map (the new zoning map ) that replaces the old zoning map; and publishing the new zoning map on the authority’s website. The new zoning map commences on the day the zoning map is published under subsection (2) (b) or the later day stated on the zoning map. A failure to ensure the new zoning map is available for inspection under section 4 does not invalidate or otherwise affect the new zoning map. In this section— existing community services infrastructure means community services infrastructure that— existed immediately before 1 September 1998 and has continued in existence since that day; or has been lawfully built under this plan. s 15 sub 2020 SL No. 176 s 10 (sec.15-ssec.1) The authority may amend the zoning map (the old zoning map ) under this section for any of the following purposes— to show land in the area that is the subject of a registered cooperative management agreement; to make a change to the boundary of a zone that is a minor change under section 16 ; to show the location of existing community services infrastructure not shown on the zoning map, and to insert or change the boundary of a zone by reference to the location of the community services infrastructure; to change the boundary of a zone the authority is satisfied is incorrectly shown on the zoning map by reference to the actual location of a geographical feature, road or structure; to correct a minor error or make another change that is not a change of substance.
