Issue details

Update on new build development programme including general progress to date, Channel View, Package deals & future direction

The report will provide Cabinet with progress to date on the development programme and an update on each of the delivery routes being used.

 

The report will also see authority to tender for a development partner for the Channel View regeneration scheme. This will update a previous Cabinet approval given in 2019 for the procurement of a contractor for phase 1 of the Channel View redevelopment project. Estimated costs at that time were circa £9 million for phase 1. The Masterplan and detail planning application for the redevelopment has since been completed and planning consent granted in December 2021. Having reviewed the project and the likely programme a new decision is required seeking approval to procure a partner contractor for the entire redevelopment programme, not just for phase1. This will ensure continuity between all phases, a shorter overall development programme, better engagement with residents and economies of scale. The entire redevelopment programme is estimated to cost in the region of £85 million and the preferred route to identify a partner developer is through The Crown Commercial framework.

 

Furthermore, an in-principle decision is being sought to enable the council to enter into a Package Deal arrangement for the acquisition of 31 new flats for an agreed contract sum at Wyndham Crescent, Riverside. To delegate the final approval of the Package deal arrangement to the Corporate Director for People and Communities in conjunction with The Director for Finance and the Cabinet member for Housing.
