Abstract

The paper presents a study of modern aspects and the legal regime of leasing land plots in the Russian Federation that are in public (federal, owned by the Subjects of the Russian Federation, municipal) ownership, since currently in Russia, the lease of land plots that are in public ownership is the most common way of using land plots. The study was conducted in order to identify modern aspects and the legal regime of leasing public land plots for subsequent practical application by tenants and landlords. To achieve this goal, an analysis of the main regulatory legal acts currently in force in Russia regulating the provision of land plots for lease for various purposes is carried out. The significance of the study lies in the fact that, despite the constant improvement of the mechanism for granting land plots for rent, the procedures for granting land for rent are contained in many regulatory legal acts and often have gaps in legal regulation associated with constant changes in these regulations. As a result of the study, it is concluded that the general procedure for concluding a lease agreement for a land plot that is in public ownership is regulated by civil and land legislation, taking into account regional and local regulatory legal acts, as well as regulatory legal acts adopted by regulatory authorities in this area independently. Previously, this body was the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation, and since 20.01.2020 – Rosreestr, which for 2020-2021 adopted more than 20 regulatory legal acts that are important in the design of land lease agreements. The results of this study are recommended to be taken into account in their activities by legal entities and individuals who use the procedures for leasing land plots that are in state or municipal ownership.
