Crown land lease

A Crown land lease is a legal agreement where the government (Crown) grants individuals or organizations permission to use public land for a specific purpose, such as farming, resource extraction, or development. The lease outlines terms, conditions, and duration, and typically involves paying rent or fees. It allows the lessee to legally utilize the land while the government retains ownership. These arrangements help manage public resources responsibly and ensure land use aligns with community and environmental standards.
