Guidance for commercial tenants

Here is a guide for tenants, which covers the roles and responsibilities of council tenants and the Council as landlord.

The 'Guide to tenants', answers the most frequently asked questions that tenants have. It covers a tenants role and responsibilities and those of Calderdale Council as the landlord.

For more details, please read: 

It covers:

  • Repairing responsibilities.
  • Lease assignment and sub-letting.
  • Payment of rent.
  • Use of premises.
  • Alterations and improvements.
  • Lease expiry.
  • Insurance.
  • Health and safety requirements.
  • Further tenant responsibility.
  • When to get professional advice.
  • Specific premises information for the Borough market, Halifax.

The guide refers to a number of common features that you may find in our business agreements. However, it is a general guide and does not override the terms of your specific lease with the Council.

It should not, in any way, be considered a substitute for independent professional advice. We do recommend that you get legal advice.

If the guide does not answer your query, please contact:
