The management of land, water and vegetation are specialised fields requiring a thorough understanding of the relevant regulatory framework and departmental processes. Leichardt Group offers a number of services concerning natural resource management which include the following:
Leichardt Group has extensive experience dealing with government administrative processes at all levels, particularly in land administration matters.
We routinely prepare and manage lease upgrade/renewal applications including freeholding for our clients. Tenure applications can be complex potentially involving matters such as forestry interests, road adjustments, survey and native title requirements.
We have successfully assisted a number of clients with freeholding applications involving former Pastoral Holdings (term leases) and Grazing Homestead Perpetual Leases.
The PMAV (Property Map of Assessable Vegetation) process remains the best possible way to secure certainty and accuracy of regulatory vegetation mapping for any property. Our natural resource management team has successfully prepared PMAV applications since inception of the process in 2004. We have access to the latest satellite and aerial imagery, and use proven methods to obtain the required field data to change the mapping if necessary.
Despite the cessation of broad scale land development in Queensland, there remain many instances where clearing permits are available for management or maintenance of a rural property. Our vegetation management specialists can assist with preparing applications, addressing the relevant criteria to ensure a successful application.
Regulatory controls demand high levels of accuracy for on-ground works. Advanced technology, such as GPS and other spatial aids, has become particularly useful in property infrastructure planning and development. We offer comprehensive spatial information services using advanced GPS and GIS software technology. We can develop the maps required, generate the data clients seek, and identify specific points for clients on site.
