March 2017 CONTENTS 1 Introduction and Strategic Context 2 The Site 3 Vision Statement 4 Design Brief 5 Conditions of Development and Disposal of Site 6 Submission of Proposals 7 Selection of a Developer 8 Urban Development Grant 9 Disclaimer 10 Further Queries Appendix A Assessment Criteria. 1 INTRODUCTION AND STRATEGIC CONTEXT 1.1 The Department for Communities (the Department) invites proposals for the development of land at Merkland Place, Lanark Way, Belfast. Proposals should be submitted no later than 12.00 noon on 27 July 2017. 1.2 The overall objective of the competition is to promote sustainable urban regeneration by selecting a high quality development proposal that also meets the Department’s regeneration objectives for the local area. In seeking to work in partnership with the private sector, the Department recognises the contribution that this sector can make to urban regeneration in terms of innovative high quality design, professional expertise and financing. 1.3 The Department plays the lead role in promoting and co-ordinating the implementation of urban regeneration programmes and schemes in towns and city centres throughout Northern Ireland. Belfast Regeneration Directorate carries out this role throughout Belfast. 1.4 The Department’s statutory regeneration authority derives from: . The Planning (NI) Order 1991 which provides the legislative basis for comprehensive development schemes, land acquisition and disposal of land and the extinguishment of public rights of way, and . The Social Need (NI) Order 1986 which provides the statutory basis for granting financial assistance to projects in areas of special social need and undertaking environmental improvement schemes.

This is all the more so given the absence of intact streetscapes from earlier periods such as the medieval, early modern or Georgian eras, as would be the case in other cities, for example, Edinburgh with its preserved ‘old town’ and its eighteenth century set-piece ‘new town’.
