Housing Regeneration Projects Briefing Paper to the Riverside Area Committee Wards: Newington and Gypsyville, 10 June 2020 St Andrews and Docklands, Drypool Riverside Regeneration Projects Briefing Paper of the Assistant City Manager, Housing Strategy and Renewal 1. Purpose of the Paper and Summary The purpose of this briefing paper is to update Members of Riverside Area Committee on the regeneration projects delivered by Housing Strategy and Renewal. 2. Background 2.1 Housing regeneration activities across the city are focused in the Council’s priority renewal areas. These areas include Newington and St Andrew’s, the Holderness Road Corridor, Orchard Park and North Bransholme. 2.2 This briefing paper outlines the progress made within the Riverside area, including an update on developments currently on site and new programmes being brought forward as a result of successful funding bids. The report also summarises the approach being taken by the Housing Strategy and Renewal section to secure additional funding and build upon the progress made to date. 3. Issues for Consideration Newington & St Andrew’s – Hawthorn Avenue Regional Growth Fund Acquisition Programme 3.12 All properties are now in Council ownership following acquisition by General Vesting Declaration. Demolition Programme 3.13 All properties have now been demolished and land assembly for the redevelopment of Hawthorn East is now complete. Access to the land via Pretoria and Seymour Street has now been secured and the land will be maintained until transferred to the developer. Local Labour 3.14 The figures for Q2 2019 / 20 for the whole of the West Hull development show that Keepmoat are achieving 71% HU based labour which is a 14% decrease on the previous quarter. This performance is against a target of 80%. We are working with the developer to better understand the reasons for the decrease in the HU based labour figure. 3.15 We are also working with the developer to monitor and analyse the orders placed with subcontractors by value as well as by locality to allow detailed understanding of the amount of value placed locally. The sub – contractor workforce analysis by location shows a figure of 42.86% having a HU postcode. 3.16 We are currently unable to track local labour as a result of the site being shut down due to Covid-19. The tracking of local labour will resume when Keepmoat resume operations. New Build Development 3.17 Amy Johnson Phase 2 : Keepmoat Homes stopped activity on site as of 1st April and also furloughed the majority of their staff. They have started to bring more staff back in recent weeks and we are working closely with Keepmoat Homes to understand when activity will restart on site. Following approval the council have an agreement in place to purchase 17 new homes from the developer Keepmoat Homes, these were scheduled to complete and handover between March 2020 and November 2020. The first 2 properties were handed over on 31st March 2020. The remaining 15 properties are likely to be delayed but we are in regular dialogue with the developer. 3.18 Hawthorn Avenue East : There remains one final parcel of land to transfer to Keepmoat off Hawthorn Avenue which is currently being progressed. Retrofit and Priority Neighbourhoods Empty Homes 3.19 KWL is the appointed contractor for the Homes England funded units and to date 32 properties have been purchased. 31 are now occupied the remaining 1 is in the process of being refurbished. All will be retained as Council housing. A further 18 properties have been leased and 6 properties have been acquired under Empty Dwelling Management Orders (EDMO). Priority Neighbourhoods – Frontage improvements 2018 - 2021 3.20 Of the 34 priority streets agreed at cabinet, the 3 year programme of frontage improvement work would begin with the following 5 streets (and associated court terraces): • Folkestone Street • Sculcoates Lane • Ruskin Street - including external solid wall insulation • Perry Street - including external solid wall insulation • Conway Close - including external solid wall insulation 3.21 The works to Folkstone Street and Sculcoates Lane will consist of replacement boundary walls and railings, bay aprons, footpaths (gate to door), court terrace footpaths including drainage, painting where appropriate, rainwater goods including fascias, gutters and fall-pipes. Other miscellaneous items that will be discussed when on site may include: communal gates, street clean operations, street lighting and communal terrace walls. 3.22 For Ruskin / Perry Street and Conway Close, in addition to the above works the installation of external solid wall insulation (or cladding) is expected subject to survey. 3.23 Due to the current situation with Covid 19 the Perry Street, Ruskin Street and Conway Close External Solid Wall Insulation and Frontage Improvement Scheme has been postponed for a period of 3 month, until 8 June 2020, in agreement with the contractor, Engie. This is following detailed discussion and a Risk Reduction Meeting with both Engie and NPS. Project Managers Instructions were issued to the contractor. A further Risk Reduction Meeting will be held on 22 May 2020 to discuss where the new start on site date of 9 June is possible. 3.24 The Sculcoates Lane and Folkestone Street Frontage Improvement Scheme is currently in the design and costing stage under a Professional Services Short Contract and this work is continuing alongside NPS and Interserve.

  • Interserve Modern Slavery Statement
    Interserve Modern Slavery statement We have a workforce of c 45,000 in the UK, c5,000 in our overseas subsidiaries and c22,000 in our Middle East associate companies, delivering construction, support services, and frontline services covering a range of sectors, worldwide.1 In addition to our directly employed workforce there are many people employed in our supply chain. Our values and our culture guide us to operate ethically and transparently. Consequently, we are committed to ensuring that Modern Slavery2 does not exist in our workforce or our supply chain. This statement should be read in conjunction with our Human Rights policy, http://www.interserve.com/docs/default-source/about/policies/human-rights-policy.pdf and with the policies and the supplier codes of conduct of our operating companies which state our position on human rights and the ethical standards we set for our own business activities and expect of our supply chain. Our whistle blowing policy and procedures http://www.interserve.com/docs/defaultsource/about/policies/whistle-blowing- policy.pdf?sfvrsn=14 provide clear guidance for our own employees and those employed in our supply chain on what to do should they suspect modern slavery is taking place. The main Modern Slavery risk within our subsidiaries’ operations stems from bringing workers employed by other companies on to our own or our customers’ sites, particularly agency workers. There are also potential risks in our supply chain in relation to goods and services at tiers 1 and below. Our suppliers and sub-contractors are required to comply with our business practices and ethical supply policies and our site induction processes extend to sub-contractors’ workers operating on our sites.

  • Balfour Beatty Q&A Transcript
    Balfour Beatty - Investor Day, 3 December 2012 - Q&A transcript Questions and answers Ian Tyler, Chief Executive Right, well I'm going to suggest that my colleagues join me on the stage and we'll kick off with a Q&A session. I think as per normal at these things if you could just state your name, rank and serial number before you kick off it may help with identification. Should we just start off over there, thank you? . Will Morgan, Goldman Sachs I have a few questions please. The first one is could you possibly just give a sense of your emerging market strategy in terms of how much you see as being related to acquisition, presumably a lot will involve acquisition of some sort or another, could you maybe just give us a sense of how much you think it might cost in terms of outlay over the coming years to give us some sense? Secondly, could you give us an idea of what your criteria are for acquisition financially speaking, whether it be return on capital or otherwise? Finally, if you could just give a sense of how competitive you see the environment in some of the key end markets you're targeting for acquisition at the moment that would be very helpful? Thank you. Ian Tyler, Chief Executive Right, it is as you would expect difficult to be absolutely definitive on that. I can certainly say where I think acquisition will or will not be relevant to our strategy. Opportunities may arise or these circumstances may change, but at the current time I would believe that if we are going to be successful in an acquisition in Brazil - sorry successful in developing a market in Brazil, we will have to do so in part through acquisition.
