Commencement and Permitting of the Tenant Improvements Clause Samples

The 'Commencement and Permitting of the Tenant Improvements' clause defines when and under what conditions a tenant may begin making improvements or alterations to the leased premises. Typically, this clause outlines the requirement for obtaining necessary permits, approvals from the landlord, and compliance with applicable laws before any construction or modification work can start. For example, it may specify that the tenant must submit detailed plans and receive written consent prior to commencing work. The core function of this clause is to ensure that all tenant improvements are properly authorized and legally compliant, thereby protecting both parties from unauthorized or unsafe alterations.
