Phase B has planning permission to deliver 88 houses. The current planning position includes an obligation to deliver 13 affordable housing units.

Market feedback is sought on the deliverability of that requirement and the impact it may have on land value, phasing, funding and risk allocation. The proposed opportunity may involve the disposal of land and/or entry into a development agreement requiring the successful developer to deliver a residential development and MHA’s stated affordable housing and additionality requirements. MHA is currently considering the most appropriate structure for the opportunity and the feedback received through this engagement may inform the final commercial, contractual and procurement approach.

The value below is based on estimated capital receipt. MHA is currently considering the appropriate basis for valuing the opportunity, including the estimated value of any works, land transaction, affordable housing acquisition, development obligations and/or whole life contractual commitments. The estimated value may be refined before publication of any tender notice. Any estimated contract dates are indicative only and will be reviewed following preliminary market engagement. The final duration will depend on the commercial and legal structure adopted, including any land transfer, development obligations, phasing, affordable housing delivery obligations, longstop dates, overage, monitoring obligations and post-completion covenants.

Which risks should sit with MHA, the developer or be shared. Are there any terms that would materially reduce market interest? • Procurement process – is a two stage competitive flexible procedure with dialogue appropriate?
