Update on the Council's Property Portfolio The Commission received a presentation from Robert Orrett, Service Director Property and Bob Baber, Asset Strategy Manager on the Council’s property portfolio, the management of and future plans. Highlights from the presentation; The City Council is the largest landowner in Bristol, including Social Housing and Highways. Land held by social housing and highways are managed by the respective departments with Property Services providing them with a valuation and support services. All the Council’s property can be viewed on the following site – http://maps.bristol.gov.uk/pinpoint/ An outline was given on how the Property Services Division was structured and the areas of work undertaken. The service responsibilities extended to security staff, cleaning and maintenance teams, management of the market and the harbour. In addition the Property Services operation is Page 6 [email protected] concerned with buildings that deliver services such as libraries and public toilets, and also the Council’s land and buildings held for investment and development purposes An explanation was provided on how the £3 million rental income was generated from the commercial property sector. In most cases, Bristol Council is the freehold landowner and entitled to a fee from commercial landlords who manage the properties which is received as income to the Council. The service worked hard to maximise the income or reduce the running costs of Council’s assets by selling and/or rationalising them. The Property Service also maintains buildings that are in use; works with local community groups and partners to share or transfer property assets and also help identify future needs for property and solutions to fill gaps. For the Investment portfolio, the Service is reviewing the current holdings , with an objective to: o Grow short term rental income by £1.5 per annum o Develop a formal Property Investment Policy and seek Cabinet approval to implement o Review Estate Management best practice and support systems in line with new policy The following was noted from the discussion that followed the presentation: a. Members were concerned that property service had not met the projected income and savings targets. Officers acknowledged that the Council’s financial management system reports an under delivery against target. However, the way the income and savings are presented by the financial system do not reflect the total activity or savings. This is because not all asset rationalisation activity undertaken by Property Services is captured and credited to the headline property savings targets. For example, property disposals related to the Bristol

    AGENDA ITEM 11 BRISTOL CITY COUNCIL CABINET 4 October 2012 REPORT TITLE: Governance Options Appraisal, Bristol Museums, Galleries & Archives Ward(s) affected by this report: Citywide Strategic Director: Graham Sims, Interim Chief Executive Rick Palmer, Interim Strategic Director Neighbourhoods and City Development Report author: Julie Finch, Head of Museums, Galleries & Archives Contact telephone no. 0117 9224804 & e-mail address: [email protected] Report signed off by Simon Cook executive member: Leader Purpose of the report: This report outlines the governance option proposed for the Bristol Museums, Galleries & Archives Services (BMGA). This report is led by the recommendations of the Select Committee Report that gained all party support in November 2009. The report identifies the most suitable model of governance for BMGA to support an improvement strategy and optimise enterprise activity creating a more sustainable future for the service and meet demand. RECOMMENDATION for Cabinet approval: 1. To agree in principle to the transfer of the BMGA to an independent trust at the existing funding levels of £3.7m subject to an agreed business case. 2. To adopt the governance model that will be a single independent museums trust, closely bound into the BCC family through specified interfaces and trustee compositions. Staff would become employees of the new organisation. The major assets will remain the property of the Council. 3. To agree to the implementation of phased approach to a change in governance 1 whereby Bristol City Council (BCC) delivers BMGA activities through a company limited by guarantee with charitable status. 4. To develop the business plan that will frame the transfer and all associated interfaces, service level agreements and entrustment agreements.

  • Youth Culture and Nightlife in Bristol
    Youth culture and nightlife in Bristol A report by: Meg Aubrey Paul Chatterton Robert Hollands Centre for Urban and Regional Development Studies and Department of Sociology and Social Policy University of Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 7RU, UK In 1982 there were pubs and a smattering of (God help us) cocktail bars. The middle-aged middle classes drank in wine bars. By 1992 there were theme pubs and theme bars, many of them dumping their old traditional names in favour of ‘humorous’ names like The Slug and Lettuce, The Spaceman and Chips or the Pestilence and Sausages (actually we’ve made the last two up). In 2001 we have a fair few pubs left, but the big news is bars, bright, shiny chic places which are designed to appeal to women rather more than blokes with swelling guts. In 1982 they shut in the afternoons and at 11pm weekdays and 10.30pm Sundays. In 2001 most drinking places open all day and many late into the night as well. In 1982 we had Whiteladies Road and in 2001 we have The Strip (Eugene Byrne, Venue Magazine July, 2001 p23). Bristol has suddenly become this cosmopolitan Paris of the South West. That is the aspiration of the council anyhow. For years it was a very boring provincial city to live in and that’s why the music that’s come out of it is so exciting. Cos it’s the product of people doing it for themselves. That’s a real punk-rock ethic. (Ian, music goer, Bristol). Contents Contents 2 List of Tables 5 Introduction 6 Chapter 1.

Introduction Bristol wants to become an age friendly city. Bristol Ageing Better, a partnership of over 100 local organisations, (www.bristolageingbetter.org.uk) and Bristol City Council are signed up to making this happen. The World Health Organisation sets out some steps that a city needs to take, if it is to achieve its age friendly objectives. One of the most important is to do a baseline assessment of the age-friendliness of the city in eight key areas: o outdoor spaces and buildings o transport o housing o social participation o respect and social inclusion o civic participation and employment o communication and information o community support and health services. This report starts that process. It is not intended to be comprehensive but rather to start a conversation. What are Bristol’s strengths and areas for improvement, where are the opportunities and challenges that will help and hinder? What progress have we already made, what learning can be shared and what successes can be built on? Although an ageing population will pose challenges for health and care systems, there will also be opportunities to improve the quality of life for Bristol’s citizens as they age.

    A Critical Approach to Place Branding Governance: From “ Holding Stakes ” to “ Holding Flags ” By Laura Elizabeth Reynolds Marketing and Strategy Section of Cardiff Business School, Cardiff University A Thesis Submitted in Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Cardiff University September 2018 ABSTRACT This thesis presents a critical account of place branding governance, questioning whether the decentralisation of ownership enables greater stakeholder participation. To do so, three overarching components are drawn upon from the extant literature, namely (place) brand meanings (Green et al., 2016; Merrilees et al., 2012), stakeholder engagement (Foo et al., 2011; Hankinson, 2009; Hanna and Rowley, 2015) and Bourdieu’s field -capital theory (Bourdieu, 1977, 1984, 1986). The holistic analysis responds to stakeholders continued hierarchical involvement, which operates in contradiction to academic claims that stakeholders should be partners, and not merely passive participants, in shaping the place branding process (Aitken and Campelo, 2011; Kavaratzis, 2012). This place branding conundrum is explored through two in-depth case studies of Bath and Bristol. The case studies utilise in-depth interviews with 60 salient stakeholders from the business community, local authority, local community and visitor economy (Mitchell et al., 1997). The thesis adopts elements from a moderate constructivist approach to grounded theory to augment the data collection, data analysis, and the abductive development of emergent theory (Charmaz, 2014; Gioia et al., 2013). This approach ensures a combination of flexibility, integrity, and depth to the research process. The abductive research establishes the 7Cs of a critical approach to place branding governance. These combine the three interconnected components ( claims, contributions, capacity ) and four supplementary and emergent outcomes ( competition, connectivity, chronology, cyclicality ).

We are fast becoming the UK’s creative capital, a city of experimentation...” Mayor George Ferguson 40 years ago, the idea that culture and creativity might drive the regeneration of our cities was little understood. Culture was largely defined in terms of entertainment choices rather than economic or social development. For some urban planners, overtones of the bohemian, the intellectual and the academic undermined the sense that there was something of substance to be found in a word which has increasingly come to define how we live together as individuals and as communities.
