Description

Pre-Construction Services for the purposes of delivering the Design and Construction of the HAP Regeneration Scheme as well as Early Works to enable this development. Principal Contractor and Principal Designer services as defined in the Building Safety Act 2022 will both be a requirement of the PCSA and the Development Agreement.

The scheme consists of 407 residential units and a community building with construction over 2 phases, with Phase 1 delivering 109 affordable homes and the 3 storey community building. The remaining 298 residential units will be delivered in Phase 2 together with the one storey community building extension. The scheme will incorporate 64 replacement homes comprising 28 existing resident leaseholder properties (as shared equity units) and 36 secure tenant properties. The 111 affordable units to be provided across both phases will include 20 shared ownership units with the remaining the 232 units for private sale.

The scheme would be phased to enable the existing residents (resident leaseholders and secure tenants) to move only once as part of an agreed decant strategy and without a need to temporarily move off-site.

The proposed development model of council finance/contribution for the delivery of the affordable units and funding of the private sale units by the developer partner will spread the financial outlay and risk of all parties and guarantee the deliverability of the project.

As Phase 1 is delivering 100% affordable homes, the Council will be paying all costs to the selected Developer on a monthly basis under an Open Book Contract. In Phase 2, any contributions agreed by the Council to be paid to the developer to meet the costs of the remaining
affordable units will be paid by the Council on a rolling basis, in accordance with certified valuations of work undertaken or agreed stage payments for delivering the affordable homes.

The Construction value is currently estimated at c. £156m. However, this will not be the anticipated Contract Value.
