Assets of community value and right to bid

Community Right to Bid

Parish councils and qualifying community groups can write to us to nominate land and/or buildings as assets that have community value.

If the nomination is approved there will be legal limitations on the sale of the asset. This includes delays on the power to enter into agreements to sell the asset. This means community groups and/or the parish council can put together a bid to purchase the asset. This is known as community right to bid.

Being listed as an asset of community value may also be a material thought in the planning application process.
