Crown Lands Act

The Crown Lands Act is a law that governs how government-owned land, known as Crown land, is managed and used. It sets out the rules for reserving, leasing, or selling public lands, ensuring their responsible use for public benefit, such as parks, conservation areas, or development projects. The Act also establishes processes for land administration, land titles, and rights, safeguarding public interests while allowing for organized development and conservation efforts. Essentially, it provides a legal framework for managing land owned by the government in a transparent and orderly manner.
