  • Estate Regeneration Gowkthrapple, Wishaw
    NORTH LANARKSHIRE COUNCIL To: HOUSING & TECHNICAL SERVICES Subject: GOWTHRAFTLE COMMITTEE From: DIRECTOR OF HOUSING AND PROPERTY SERVICES Date: 14 MAY 2004 Ref: TMcWPH 1. Introduction 1.1 The purpose of this report is to update Committee on the outcome of the Option Appraisal study of Gowkthrapple and seek Committee approval for the proposed way forward to address the problems of severe lack of demand and high turnover. 2. Background 2.1 Gowkthrapple is an estate of 717 Council properties, all but 27 of which are flats. Ganion People’s Housing Co-operative also owns 191 properties in Gowkthrapple, including 140 flats transferred from the Council. Despite investment of E14.3m in the external fabric of the blocks in the 1980’s and 1990’s, recent years have seen a dramatic fall in demand for the flats, along with high turnover and void rates. 2.2 Whilst the demand for public sector housing in the area has continued to decline the demand for flatted accommodation in the private sector continues to increase. A number of private developers are currently building or have received planning permission to build approximately 162 flats on a number of sites in and around the Gowkthrapple area. 2.3 A number of management initiatives, including extensive marketing of the area, has not increased demand for the area. Electricity pylons running across the site and a nearby contaminated industrial site further blight the area. 2.4 The number of voids has increased by 150% over the last 2 ?4 years, and currently 36% (245) of the flats are void, compared to 1.6% for North Lanarkshire overall.
