Introduction
Aims
To provide an up to date, safe public parking facility and improve the general
appearance of the site for the benefit of the community.
Scope:
The project includes works to the area within the ‘red line’ as shown on drawing
number 1641 015, including design and construction of the units and resurfacing
of the car park.
The project includes providing the electrical and mechanical services necessary
for the development.
The project includes the relocation of the bus stop and works on street parking
bays which are required to facilitate the scheme, but will be carried out by others.
Accommodation
o 4 number 2 bed flats (2 on the first floor and 2 on the second floor) See
drawing 1641 021
o 1 number 3 bed flat/apartment on the third floor. See drawing 1641 023
Provide a minimum of 63 parking spaces (as per the outline planning consent)
Provide servicing and emergency access to the rear of the units and additional
locations for recycling bin storage.
Key Assumptions
The scheme will receive outline planning consent based on the January 2014
Planning Committee decision.
The site is in the ownership of TWBC and no legal reasons exist to prevent the
Council developing the site.
Constraints
The site is known to have areas of Japanese Knotweed which will need to be
removed. The treatment of this will be included as part of the proposed site
redevelopment.
The car park will need to remain operational in some form during the works.
Some neighbouring buildings may need party wall agreements and agreements
regarding rights of light.
Key Risks:
Key Issues:
The business case appraisal for the project has been carried out at Appendix E.
Following approval to proceed, party wall agreements and any rights of light
agreements would be needed and the Council would appropriate the site to
enable the development to proceed.
An outline project sequencing and logistics plan will be needed for parking and
access.
Work to remove the Japanese Knotweed will need to be fully scoped and put into
place.
Resolution on how Section 106 agreements are dealt with is needed and a formal
consent for Outline Planning should then be issued.
Stakeholders
The project delivery team is currently being led by Faithful and Gould under the
SCAPE framework.
