The time is now….

Isn’t this exactly why


the public sector ‘do’
regeneration?
Welcome to Brent!
South Kilburn
Keeping up with the neighbours
Two years ago….
• Initiative-itus
• Failing NDC
• Stalled stock transfer
• Undeliverable scheme
• Community frustration
• Council effectively outsourced
responsibility!
• Nothing happening !!!
Today…
• Clear and shared priorities
• NDC succession strategy in place – SKNT
• Viable business and phasing plans
• New homes and community facilities
• Improved masterplan
• Tackling worst homes first
• Council taking responsibility
• Investment in proper project management
Our approach
• Council acting as master-developer
• Less housing estate, more real estate
• Revised and improved masterplan
• Incremental and phased delivery
• De-risking sites prior to going to market
• Emphasis on quality of design
• Generating and capturing value
• Re-investing and recycling resources
Advance phase….
Moving forward
• Shared commitments through single
conversation
• Re-investing all capital receipts
• Complete Phase 1 – 4 more sites
• Procure developer framework
• Joint approach to neighbourhood management
• SKNT delivering complimentary regeneration
initiatives
Lessons Learnt
• Shared vision
• Champion quality throughout
• Strong project management arrangements
• Momentum, momentum, momentum!

engagement
• Value attached to de-risking
• Cash(flow) is king!
