Conservation and Occupiers Authority (COA)

Welcome to the central registry for the Conservation and Occupiers Authority (coa.au).

The Authority serves as the national governing body, risk-management framework, and compliance engine for decentralized, eco-autonomous, and transportable structural footprints. Registration as a member of the Authority is a strict, non-negotiable prerequisite for all occupiers to activate localized civil compliance, site-bylaw integration, and our centralized master insurance blanket.

1.1 THE SOVEREIGN MEMBERSHIP FRAMEWORK

1.1.1 Management and Supreme Veto Control

Within this rulebook, the official Constitution, and all onboarding documentation, the term "COA" refers strictly to the national corporate management team. To ensure the village remains functional, financially viable, and completely insulated from local government intervention, the national management team retains absolute, uncompromised veto authority over the estate’s master budgets, site rules, biosecurity protocols, and Section 68 Local Government Act compliance mandates.

1.1.2 The $250 Administrative Entry Gate & No Voting Rights

To activate an active profile within the national deployment registry, all applicants must pay a non-refundable, once-off Administrative Joining Fee of $250 per allotment directly to the apex management vehicle, COA Operations Pty Ltd.

• What this Fee Funds: This $250 fee is used solely to fund central head-office administration, background compliance verification, master portal licensing, and constitutional onboarding processes. It does not constitute a security deposit or a claim over land equity.

• Absolute Governance Boundary: By paying this fee and signing this document, you explicitly acknowledge and agree that membership is strictly an infrastructure access utility and carries absolutely zero voting rights or corporate governance leverage. Members cannot vote out directors, alter peak regulations, or force the fragmentation or sale of the underlying land title. This structure protects the estate from internal political stalemates and guarantees total multi-generational tenure security for everyone involved.

1.1.3 What Your Membership Unlocks

Active, compliance-vetted membership grants an allotment holder the conditional right to participate in the designated off-grid infrastructure networks, programmatic systems, and common utilities of the COA Group. Subject to continuous adherence to the Site Rules, your membership unlocks access to these four core areas:

• The Prioritization Ballot Queue: Your name is placed directly into our national priority deployment list for a dedicated village pad footprint, activated upon the secure placement of your $10,000 Ballot Commitment Fee into an audited statutory trust.

• The Permanent Right to Occupy (PRO): Upon final site assignment and confirmation of your $25,000 cooperative share structure, you secure a legal, transferable Permanent Right to Occupy (PRO) a designated 60 m² transportable architectural footprint, completely insulated from the main land deed.

• Local Subsidiary Transition & Autonomy: All local estate funds, greywater networks, and shared assets are administered by the localized vehicle, COA Land Care Jiggi Ltd, established to secure regional grants and systematically buy out the initial machinery fleet. Once deployed, day-to-day operational budgets (such as fuel, equipment upgrades, and common area choices) are completely self-funded and managed autonomously by the resident body.

• National Environmental Compliance Auditing: The national parent body (COA Land Care Ltd) acts as the supreme regulatory auditor for the property. To preserve active Section 68 approvals, the national body runs periodic environmental, biosecurity, and fire-safety audits, retaining full veto authority to enforce immediate rectification measures if community standards decay.

1.2 ALLOTMENT COMPLIANCE RATES & TURNKEY FINANCING MATRIX

1.2.1 Fixed Allotment Rate Structure

To maintain absolute simplicity and eliminate individual tracking friction, ongoing site costs at Jiggi Common are calculated strictly on a per-allotment basis, rather than head-count metrics. In compliance with local planning criteria, this framework permits a maximum density of four (4) persons per footprint. The gross contribution is structured at a baseline of $250 / week per allotment, broken down cleanly into Site Rental and Infrastructure Maintenance.

1.2.2 Infrastructure Maintenance & The Stewardship Rebate

• The Resident Stewardship Rate: Allotments that actively execute their scheduled community land care, biosecurity tracking, and fire-mitigation duties receive an immediate $50 / week Stewardship Rebate, reducing their net ongoing site contribution to a flat $200 / week per allotment.

• The Infrastructure Umbrella: This net $200/week contribution completely fulfills the allotment's ongoing share toward the estate's Master Asset Protection Policies (including $20M Public Liability, full structural insurance for the central communal shed, and voluntary workers cover), localized Section 68 compliance monitoring, and the maintenance of the shared sub-surface greywater processing loops.

• The Forfeiture Protection: If an allotment fails or chooses not to execute its rostered maintenance tasks, the $50 rebate for that cycle is automatically forfeited and retained by the local subsidiary, COA Land Care Jiggi Ltd, to instantly dispatch external commercial groundskeepers to protect the valley's safety and aesthetics.

1.2.3 Turnkey SEFA Capital & Home Lease Alignment

To completely remove the burden of traditional mortgage debt and high-interest consumer liabilities, onboarding members access structured, institutional financing options provided via our social enterprise partner network (SEFA):

• Turnkey Asset Financing Package: Eligible members secure a unified capital impact loan covering the combined $150,000 valuation of their cooperative infrastructure shares and their pre-certified, 100% NCC Class 1a 60 m² transportable dwelling package.

• Unified Loan Amortization: This $150,000 turnkey asset package is serviced at a baseline rate of approximately $301 / week over a structured, long-term 15-year community amortization framework.

• Total Combined Autonomy: When combined with the net COA site fees, an allotment's total, all-inclusive weekly out-of-pocket cost sits at an unassailable $501 / week net. This flat layout replaces all traditional mortgage, council rate, and external utility burdens with a single, highly attainable framework.

1.3 UTILITY INFRASTRUCTURE BOUNDARIES

1.3.1 Strict Individual Allotment Autonomy

To guarantee total community self-reliance and protect the management vehicles from residential utility disputes, utility lines are strictly partitioned at the footprint boundary:

• Resident Responsibility: Every individual allotment holder completely owns, operates, and maintains their own standalone off-grid solar arrays, lithium battery storage, inverter systems, and primary domestic potable fresh water tank networks. COA Group does not provide, service, or guarantee individual power or fresh water.

1.3.2 Final Site Assignment & Allotment Shares

Upon formal allocation of an active 60 m² footprint at Jiggi Common, the trust-held $10,000 deposit is released directly to active development accounts. At this milestone, the onboarding member releases a final $15,000 Confirmation Payment, successfully completing their $25,000 Allotment Share Buy-In.

• Company Title Security: Under the traditional Australian Company Title framework, this $25,000 payment purchases a specific block of shares in the landowning vehicle (COA Developments #1 Pty Ltd).

• Irrevocable Right to Occupy: Holding these specific Allotment Shares is what gives the member an irrevocable, multi-generational Permanent Right to Occupy (PRO) their designated housing pad. This right is legally bound to the shares and completely insulated from any main land mortgages.

1.3.3 Sovereign Communal Hub

• The central communal shed and pavilion infrastructure operates on its own completely independent utility loop, featuring its own dedicated industrial off-grid solar microgrid and independent potable water storage tanks.

• This setup functions entirely separate from individual residential setups. It is funded and managed autonomously by the resident body's collective pooling choices, serving as an ironclad operational backup for the village in the event of an isolated individual equipment failure.
