Environment—disused service stations
(Question No 556)

Ms Le Couteur asked the Minister for Territory and Municipal Services, upon notice, on 11 February 2010:

What regular maintenance work does the Department of Territory and Municipal Services carry out in disused service stations across the ACT.

Mr Stanhope: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

The Department of Territory and Municipal Services does not do any maintenance of privately-owned disused leases. The ACT Planning and Land Authority is the responsible body for complaints that relate to an unclean leasehold such as a disused service station site. Each case is assessed based on the nature of the complaint and action may be taken under the Planning and Development Act 2007 to enforce a breach of the Crown Lease if there is a failure of the lessee to maintain the property.
