Works of councils
240: Compensation payable by council for land taken or injuriously affected
"Council pays you if they take your land or reduce its value"
If a council takes some of your land or does something that hurts the value of your land, you might get compensation from the council. The council has to pay you for the land they took or for the harm they caused. This rule is part of the law that governs what councils can do, but it was repealed on 1 November 1989 by section 25(1) of the Local Government Amendment Act (No 2) 1989.
