4. The Council may, on the giving of written notice to the registered owner, extend the term for a further period of one year should the works within the lease land not be completed by the expiry of the original term. The current market rent will be reviewed at the time the registered owner is given notice of any such extension.

5. Notwithstanding the term created, the Council may terminate the lease at any time by giving the registered owner one month’s notice in writing.

9. The Council will at the expiration of the term, or any extended period taken in accordance with the lease, remove all debris arising from the Council’s occupation under the lease together with any temporary fences required to be erected by the Council on the lease land during the lease.
