Runnymede Regeneration Programme

Tender description

This ITPD has been developed to steer the procurement of the selection of a private sector partner to enter a Development Agreement with the Council to deliver major regeneration and development programme of new (or improvements to) the following potential facilities: housing and residential accommodation; retail developments; leisure and cultural facilities; car parking; infrastructure; community facilities and public open spaces (and incidental or related works to this regeneration and development) in Runnymede (the “Programme”). The Council will procure the Programme using the Competitive Dialogue procedure as governed by Regulation 30 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, which provides the opportunity for a structured and regular approach to dialogue. The Council intends to make an initial portfolio of sites available through the Development Agreement. The proposed Sites are described in detail in Volume 2 (Technical Specification) of this ITPD. The Council does, however, reserve the right to add or remove properties from this portfolio prior to entry of the Development Agreement. Financial bids and designed development proposals are invited from developers, developer contractors or development consortiums. The Council intends to procure a single development partner to develop five regeneration initiatives within the Borough of Runnymede over a period of 8 years but potentially up to 13 years. The sites are as follows: INITIAL SITES The Initial Sites are so far as is practicable ready to commence development work immediately following the completion of the Development Agreement. These sites are: 1) Egham Gateway Phase 1; 2) Egham Leisure Centre. PIPELINE SITES The Pipeline Sites are sites that the Council firmly intends to regenerate but which need to be phased with other sites; need some land assembly and / or require tenants to move out of occupation. Consequently, these sites are pipeline sites and these are: 3) Addlestone TWO; 4) Addlestone THREE; 5) Egham Gateway Phase 2. The Council's key strategic regeneration aims and objectives include (but are not limited to) the objectives set out in the OJEU Notice. The Development Agreement is expected to provide short and medium term regeneration based on creating a supply chain of sites that the Council largely already owns or where the Council intends to secure ownership. The Development Agreement concept is therefore to combine public sector land assets in Runnymede with private sector development skills but using Council funding.
