A brief guide to negotiating development and lease agreements with commercial entities

Council's management plans deliver on the vision for their LGA to better serve and enhance the social and economic lives of their communities.

The master plans or management plans set the actions to turn the vision into reality and invariably include strategies for the development of council owned assets.

Often the realisation of the vision involves an agreement between council and a non-government commercial entity or organisation involving the development and lease of council owned land.

These agreements can be a win-win. Commercial organisations gain access to a valuable asset and council welcomes the investment, jobs and services they bring.
