Background

The Local Government Act 1993 requires all public land to be classified as either community or operational.

Community land is land council makes available for use by the public, for example parks or sports grounds.

Operational land is land which facilitates the functions of council and may not be open to the public, for example a works depot or a council pound. This classification also determines land management and dealings: community land requires a plan of management and must not be sold, exchanged or otherwise disposed of by a council. There are no such special restrictions on council powers to manage, dispose or change the nature of operational land.
