Consultation has concluded

Background

Feedback is sought on:

  • proposed three (3) leases of Community Land at the Naracoorte Aerodrome to: Southern Air Ag Pty Ltd as trustees for the Southern Air Ag Trust; Anceps Pty Ltd ATF Southern Air Ag Trust; Southern JetA1 Pty Ltd


The land occupied by the Naracoorte Aerodrome is Crown Land and classified as Community Land under section 193 of the Local Government Act, 1999 and the associated Community Land Management Plan designates its use as Licensed Aerodrome, with surplus land used for motorsport and grazing activities.


The land is formally identified as Portion Section 1094, contained in Crown Reserve Volume 5673 Folio 614 or 139 Doolans Road, Naracoorte SA 5271.


The objectives for management of the land are:

  • To maintain the Naracoorte Aerodrome as a Registered Aerodrome in accordance with legislative requirements
  • To maintain land surplus to operational Aerodrome requirements for a mix of recreation and agricultural activities under lease or licence (as Council may consider appropriate) Native Title is extinguished at the Naracoorte Aerodrome.


Recent history: Southern Aerial Agriculture has held a land lease totalling 5,913 square metres for exclusive business use since 2002. The lease is due to expire on 31 December 2021. The Lessee has constructed a new hanger and has recently applied for approval to install a new Jet Fuel system, all within the current leased site. The Lessee has informed Council that they have changed from one (1) entity to three (3) entities owning infrastructure on the leased area and wish to have this reflected in their leases with Council.The Lease is for land only, with all infrastructure owned by the Lessees. It is recommended to end the current lease and replace with the following:


Lease 1: To formalise a lease between Council and Southern Air Ag Pty Ltd as trustee for Southern Air Ag Trust from 1 July 2018 for ten (10) years with a right of renewal for a further ten (10) years.

Lease 2: To formalise a lease between Council and Anceps Pty Ltd AFT Southern Air Ag Trust from 1 July 2018 for ten (10) years with a right of renewal for a further ten (10) years.

Lease 3: To formalise a lease between Council and Southern JetA1 Pty Ltd from 1 July 2019 for nine (9) years with a right of renewal for a further ten (10) years.Total area of land under lease remains at 5,913 square metres.


Ministerial Approval: The approval of the Minister is required under the Crown Land Management Act 2009. The Minister has advised that since the proposed lease is in effect a ‘renewal’ of an existing lease that their consent is not required in this instance. Consent will still be required for the addition of any built infrastructure on the site, in which approval has been received from the Minister for the installation of the new Jet Fuel infrastructure.


Why is Council consulting the community?

Before granting a lease or licence for Community Land, under the Local Government Act 1999, Council must consult the community.

All land owned by Council or under a Council's care, control and management is Community Land unless the Council has resolved to exclude the land from classification as Community Land.
