Regeneration Projects
The Suite 16 Programme has been brought together to deliver Members' expectations of infrastructure and jobs-led growth. It will deliver projects that achieve:
- A better offer for our town centres
- A better education and training offer
- A better employment offer - high grade, higher density jobs
The mutually supportive role of these three aspirations cannot be over-stated. The town centre and the skills base will be persuasive to inward investors. Similarly, high grade employment supports a vibrant town centre.
The programme is staffed by officers seconded from within the Council, and has been developed alongside our partners, utilising - where necessary - external expertise from a number of different professions. Wherever possible, the programme will be delivered using external challenge funding, although it is recognised that sometimes match-funding or catalytic investment is required to generate further private investment. The key principles for the programme are as follows:
- Any redevelopment should be characterful to reflect the locality
- The quality of design must be high
- Material quality must be high
- In creating a characterful experience, distinctive zones are advantageous
