3
A local authority may let for use as a parking place any off-street parking place provided by them; and, where the parking place is in a building, they may let the parking place separately from the rest of the building or let the whole or any part of the building with the parking place.
4
A local authority may, on such terms as they think fit,—
a
let land on which they could erect or adapt a building for the purpose of providing an off-street parking place with a view to its being provided by some other person, or

arrange with any person for him to provide such a parking place on any land of which he is the owner or in which he has an interest.
