Transfer to Local Authority
JLES would engage in Open Space project works on the clients behalf to bring the site up to adoptable standards before co-ordinating legal departments for the quick transfer of the site to the Local Authority.
Transfer to a Third Party
JLES can arrange for the land ownership to be transferred to a third party, a land management company, which would take over the liabilities and maintenance of the site in perpetuity. This could either take the form of a single commuted sum or via a resident led scheme.
