Resort Management Boards

Alpine Resort Management Boards exist for each Alpine Resort. They:

• act as the Crown’s representative for leasing and other land management functions; and
• provide services such as water, sewerage and other municipal services.

For more information about the role and function of the Alpine Resorts Management Boards see the Alpine Resorts (Management) Act 1997.

The relevant Alpine Resort Management Board is a referral authority under Section 55 of the Planning and Environment Act 1987 and has the opportunity to comment on planning permit applications as the Land Manager.
