## Summary

Lancaster City Council has initiated a tender process for the development partner role in the regeneration of the Lancaster Canal Quarter area. The titled project focuses on sustainable housing and aims to enhance the city's role as a sub-regional centre. The procurement stage is currently in the Tender phase with key deadlines for Expressions of Interest on 30th October 2023, PQQ on 31st October 2023, and the Tender submission on 6th December 2023. The project falls under the construction industry category, with a contract value of £13,000,000, using a selective procurement method.

This tender opportunity from Lancaster City Council presents a significant opportunity for housing developers or consortiums with a focus on sustainable and energy-efficient construction practices. Businesses in the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services sector would be well-suited to compete for this contract. The project's focus on brownfield land development aligns with current environmental standards, offering a chance for companies to showcase their expertise in delivering high-quality, environmentally friendly housing solutions in alignment with the council's vision for the area.

## Notice

Expressions of Interest closes on 30th October 2023 at noon. PQQ closes on 31st October 2023 at noon. Tender submission deadline on 6th December 2023 at noon. Regeneration of the Canal Quarter area is critical to enhancing Lancaster's role as a sub-regional centre and boosting its housing, commercial, cultural and leisure offer. Over the next 10 years it is envisaged that key "gap" sites and dereliction within the 6.5 ha wider site envelope will be addressed, and development progressed for a mix of uses that will complement the existing town centre and provide for balanced place-making. Lancaster City Council is seeking to appoint a preferred housing developer partner to assist in delivering its housing regeneration ambitions for a city council owned site designated for early release within the Lancaster Canal Quarter regeneration area. The council is seeking bids from housing developers (and their associates) or consortium (with identified lead organisation) to promote and develop an early phase market housing scheme. It is expected that development will achieve the highest possible degree of energy efficiency and provide an exemplar in terms of sustainable build and achievement of carbon reduction targets The council has been awarded Brownfield Land Release Fund (BLRF) money for the site, the aim of which is to unlock new homes on derelict and underused brownfield land through the One Public Estate programme. The money will help the council to bring forward plans for this early phase housing site which would see new homes delivered to the council's exacting environmental standards.
