The right of tenants – and their employees and customers – to park can be one of the most important elements of office and retail leases. Physical space is often sparse and expensive, making parking spots even more dear. Tenants want absolute rights to parking and to ensure attendant services – e.g., snow removal, maintenance, etc. – while landlords want maximum flexibility, including the right to reclaim spots. This program will provide you with a practical guide to spotting parking issues in commercial leases, and negotiating effective rights for your clients.
