Crown Lands Offices

Crown Lands Offices are government agencies responsible for managing public lands owned by the Crown, which is the state. Their primary functions include overseeing land use, leasing, sales, and conservation efforts. They ensure that land is used efficiently and sustainably, often managing parks, forests, and other natural resources. These offices also handle applications for land-related permits and licenses, as well as resolving disputes regarding land use. They play a vital role in balancing environmental protection with economic development, serving the interests of both the public and the government.
