City Centre Strategic Investment Framework Strategic Priorities and Implementation Annexe

The projects identified within the Liverpool City Centre Strategic Investment Framework (SIF) relate to either Major Transformational Projects, Strategic Initiatives or Infrastructure. The delivery and implementation of these is of upmost importance to ensure job creation and economic growth is achieved. The following table has been established in collaboration with key stakeholders to ensure that a number of objectives are achieved. The areas for consideration within the table include:

• Ownership- Responsibility for lead delivery is allocated to ensure projects are driven forward by the appropriate authority. They will enlist the support of other key stakeholders when appropriate; • Timeframes-The timeframe for delivery is in many instances dependent on the delivery of other linked projects and the project’s ability to deliver jobs. Three timeframes have been identified: 1-3 years for near term projects; 4-8 years for medium term projects; and 9-15 years for long term projects. • Priority- Projects have been prioritised to ensure that jobs are delivered throughout the 15 year duration of the SIF, with an initial boost in the near term to stimulate the economy and ensure that the reduced public sector employment opportunities are replaced by private sector opportunities. High priority projects will therefore be planned, implemented and delivered in the earlier stages of the SIF where funding allows; • Potential funding source- Various options for funding have been identified and other opportunities are expected to become available over the lifetime of the SIF ; and • Outcomes- Each project has been identified and designed to achieve an outcome which will benefit the city’s development, ultimately leading to job creation and economic growth. The success of each of the individual projects is dependent on achieving the identified outcome.

The following table illustrates these points for each of the projects identified within sections 5, 6,7 and 8 of the SIF Ownership Funding
