Moira Shire Council has developed a draft Lease and Licence Policy to help guide the fair and equitable management of all land and property across Council’s portfolio through leases and licenses.

Council is committed to making property not required for council use available for the community, to help support local community organisations - including volunteer organisations, sports clubs and local businesses.

The draft Policy proposes clear guidelines and criteria around User Groups, responsibilities for maintenance and management, and a transparent rent and outgoings structure.

Consultation is open from Tuesday 30 September and will close on Tuesday 21 October.

Council is collecting the information contained in this engagement tool to help Council understand the community's views on the draft Lease and Licence Policy, and also to respond to or provide updates to people providing feedback, once consultation has closed.

Your responses will reviewed by Council staff as part of reviewing the draft policy. Your responses (excluding any identifying information and any moderated comments) may also be made publicly available on Council’s community engagement platform, Moira Matters and may also be included in on official Council Agenda and Minutes which are public documents and available on Council's website. Council may also disclose your information if required or authorised to do so by legislation.

You can find out more about how we use and protect your information by viewing our Privacy Policy. If you require access to the information you have provided, please contact Council.
