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.
