Car parking licence
A standard document for a landowner granting a licence to an individual or company to use a car parking space. This car parking licence is carefully structured to prevent the creation of a lease by avoiding the grant of exclusive possession. This distinction is critical for landowners seeking to prevent licensees from gaining statutory protections, such as those available under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 (LTA 1954). This standard document outlines the key terms of the arrangement, including the licence fee, permitted use, and the licence period. It details the primary obligations of both the licensor and licensee and contains provisions for termination, liability limitations, and notices. The agreement is drafted to establish a personal, non-assignable right for the licensee, clearly defining the legal relationship between the parties. This standard document provides a foundational template for formalising a licence to park, addressing key legal and practical considerations.
