Leases to non-profit Organisations

The objectives of this policy are to:

  • ensure the Council's community assets provide the best possible use and value to the Hobart community
  • demonstrate a clear and fair process for granting a lease to a Not-For-Profit Organisation (NFPOs) for a property owned by the Council
  • ensure the rates and rental charges for NFPOs leasing Council property are equitable
  • ensure a range of Council-owned community facilities are accessible for leasing by NFPOs through the provision of a subsidised rent
  • ensure there is recognition of the Council's contribution to the community through its provision and management of facilities for community use, granting of leases to NFPOs and the provision of subsidised rent for eligible NFPOs
  • demonstrate the benefit for the Council that derives from the provision of subsidised rental to eligible NFPOs leasing Council property.
