HERITAGE ACT 1977 - SECT 63
Determination of application
63 Determination of application
(1) Except as provided by subsection (2), the approval body may determine an
application for approval by granting approval to that application, either
unconditionally or subject to conditions, or by refusing approval.
(1A) The
determination of an application for approval in relation to
integrated development is subject to Division 5 of Part 4 of the
Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 .
(2) Where-- (a) an
application for approval is made to demolish the whole of a building or work,
or
(b) an application for approval is made which would, if it were approved,
necessitate the demolition of the whole of a building or work,
the
approval body shall determine that application by refusing approval.
(3)
Nothing in subsection (2) prevents the approval body from approving an
application referred to in that subsection if-- (a) it is of the opinion that
the building or work constitutes a danger to the users or occupiers of that
building or work, the public or a section of the public, or
(b) it is a
condition of the approval that the building or work be relocated on other
land, or
(c) the building or work is situated (whether wholly or partly) in a
place or precinct that is an item of State heritage significance, but is not
itself such an item, and the approval body is of the opinion that the
demolition of the whole of the building or work will not have a materially
detrimental effect on the heritage significance of the place or precinct.
(4)
Without limiting or restricting the power of the approval body to impose
conditions under subsection (1), it may, in granting approval to an
application for approval, impose, as a condition of its approval, a
condition-- (a) that the applicant give security in such form and such amount
as is determined by the approval body having regard to the nature and extent
of the work referred to in the approval to ensure the satisfactory completion
of that work, and
(b) that where the approval is to the demolition, in whole
or in part, of a building or work, such measures as are specified in the
approval be taken in the interests of public safety and convenience with
respect to the demolition.
