Circular LG 21/20 - Guidance to Councils - disposal of land at less than best price

District Councils will on occasion have a business need to dispose of or lease a portion of its property or properties within their area of responsibility for a specific purpose which provides a benefit in serving the wider community.   Guidance on lands cases has been published setting out the processes a council must follow without charging the prospective recipient of that land the full market value. Councils must apply to the Department where the full council has ratified a decision to dispose of Land at Less than Best Price.
