Land and Property
West Lothian Council owns a significant amount of property - land and buildings - located throughout the county.
This may be:
- Operational - that is assets used for the direct delivery of services to customers (schools, libraries etc) or to accommodate those who support service delivery (for example, in depots or Headquarter offices)
- Non-operational - that is strategic development land; our commercial portfolio of industrial, office and retail space for lease to third parties; and occasionally, surplus assets for disposal.
