South Australian Consolidated Acts (1) Where land is on a
State/local heritage list, a valuing authority that values the land for the
purpose of levying rates, taxes or imposts must, in making the
valuation—

into account the fact that the land is on a State/local heritage list; and
(b)
disregard any potential use of the land that is inconsistent with its
preservation as a place of State or local heritage significance or value.
(3) Where a
valuing authority makes a valuation under subsection (1), it must inform
the owner of the land, in writing, of the valuation and of the owner's
obligations under subsection (5).
(4) The fact that land
is placed on a State/local heritage list does not invalidate pre-existing
valuations.
(5) Where land has
been valued under this section and the land ceases to be land that is on a
State/local heritage list, the owner must within 28 days inform the relevant
valuing authority accordingly and must furnish such further information as the
valuing authority may require.
Maximum penalty: $5 000.
Expiation fee: $315.
