Community tenure forms

A number of different tenure agreements (the conditions under which land or buildings are held or occupied) are available for not for profit (NFP) groups, such as:

• short and long term leases
• permits or licences
• management and user agreements, or
• a combination of the above.

The type of tenure offered by Council will depend on:

• the type of activity undertaken
• what infrastructure is required
• the suitability of the premises, and
• how regularly the activity occurs.

Under a tenure arrangement, Council’s consent must be obtained before making any improvements, additions or alterations within or to the leased area; permit or licence area; management agreement area and/or user agreement area via the Go Clubs Application for Improvement Works.
