Extension of Lease
Service Description
This service supports property owners in applying for lease extensions for residential, commercial, or mixed-use properties. It aligns with Section 13 of the Land Act, 2012, and PLUPA Sections 57 and 58. LSS prepares and submits Form PLUPA/DC/3, advises on engagement with the National Land Commission (NLC) or county government, and supports responses to public objections where required.
