It is located in the east end of Glasgow on a Brownfield site that has Been empty for approximately 60 years. The Clyde Gateway regeneration programme, which is a partnership between Glasgow City Council, South Lanarkshire Council and Scottish Enterprise, is backed by the Scottish Government and aims to achieve social, economic and physical change for communities over an area of 840 hectares.

  • Housing People Who Are Homeless in Glasgow
    Housing people who are homeless in Glasgow March 2018 Housing people who are homeless in Glasgow Summary This report sets out the findings from our review of how effectively Glasgow City Council and Registered Social Landlords (RSLs) house people who are homeless. Main findings The Council is not housing enough people who are homeless quickly enough. In 2016/17 it housed around half of those it had a duty to house. Some people are housed quickly; this works best when all partners have a clear focus on moving people who are homeless into a home quickly. The Council’s target of securing 3,000 homes for people who are homeless each year is too low for the number of people it assesses that it has a duty to house. It is not referring enough people to RSLs to meet the level of need from people who are homeless. Many people who are homeless have to wait a long time in temporary accommodation. The Council and its partners have made some important improvements to the process they use to find homes for people, and they are working together more effectively. The Council aims for a person-centred, needs-led approach to identifying solutions for people who are homeless. This is positive, particularly for people with multiple and complex needs. However, a full and detailed assessment is not necessary for everyone; many people who approach the Council need little help other than getting a home. The Council’s phased approach to assessing the housing needs of people who are homeless results in duplication of work and unnecessary delay in referring people who are homeless to RSLs.

The focus of the SHIP is on Glasgow’s Affordable Housing Supply Programme (AHSP) which delivers affordable housing, either to rent or buy, in the city. Also included are housing investment streams relating to the existing housing stock, and revenue investment, as these support or are actively partnered with the AHSP to maximise value for the city’s residents and communities. The Scottish Government issued new SHIP Guidance to local authorities in July 2016 which sets the requirements for plans covering the period 2017/18-2021/22. For the whole of Scotland, the 5- year target is to provide 50,000 affordable homes, of which 35,000 will be for social rent. The guidance states that “SHIPs will be the key documents for identifying strategic housing projects to assist the achievement of the 50,000 target”. Consultation on the SHIP The draft SHIP went out to consultation on 24 October 2016 for 4 weeks, in parallel with a consultation on the new draft Glasgow Housing Strategy.

  • Glasgow's Housing Policies
    5 GLASGOW'S HOUSING POLICIES S. F. HAMILTON, Director of Administration, Glasgow District Over the past two years the debate on Glasgow's housing policies has taken on a new urgency. Glasgow's population has already fallen by well over quarter of a million since 1961 and the city is still losing about 25,000 of its citizens every year. The main battles on housing policy have been fought within the Labour Party. The Social Democratic wing have been advocat­ ing the adoption of a more liberal and pragmatic approach to housing as one of the essential elements in a concerted pro­ gramme aimed at making the city a better and more attractive place to live. They hope thereby to stem the tide of emigration. The advocates of this policy have run into bitter opposition from the traditionalists in the Labour Party who do not accept that the flight from the city is in any way a rejection of past policies and who still see the socialisation of housing as a legitimate and desirable goal in its own right. In the first two years of the life of the District Council (which came into being in May 1975) the new Labour Adminis­ tration, courageously led by Bailie Dick Dynes, were persuaded to respond to changing public demand and to break with tradi­ tion and espouse causes which are by no means popular with the Party's left wing. Before any of the new policy initiatives could bear fruit the Administration had to face the electorate and at the 1977 election the Labour Party lost their majority.

  • Community Ownership in Glasgow: the Devolution of Ownership and Control, Or a Centralizing Process
    McKee, K. (2007) Community ownership in Glasgow: the devolution of ownership and control, or a centralizing process. European Journal of Housing Policy, 7 (3). pp. 319-336. ISSN 1461-6718 http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/6233/ Deposited on: 24 June 2009 Enlighten – Research publications by members of the University of Glasgow http://eprints.gla.ac.uk Community Ownership in Glasgow: the devolution of ownership and control, or a centralising process? The largest housing stock transfer in Europe, the 2003 Glasgow transfer promises to ‘empower’ tenants by devolving ownership and control from the state to local communities. This is to be delivered through a devolved structure in which day to day housing management is delegated to a citywide network of 60 Local Housing Organisations, governed at the neighbourhood level by committees of local residents. The receiving landlord, the Glasgow Housing Association, has further made commitments to disaggregate the organisation via Second Stage Transfer in order to facilitate local community ownership, as well as management of the housing stock. This paper argues that whilst the Glasgow transfer has enhanced local control in the decision making process within the limits permitted by the transfer framework, it has nonetheless failed to deliver the levels of involvement aspired to by those actively engaged in the process. Displaying at times more of the semblance of a movement than an organisation, the Glasgow Housing Association operates a classic centre-periphery divide. These tense central-local relations have contributed to the emergence of conflict which has further undermined negotiations surrounding the realisation of full community ownership via Second Stage Transfer.

  • S3 Urban Unit
    URBAN (Glasgow) INFORMATION BOOKLET INTRODUCTION TO GLASGOW (DEVELOPED CITY) Glasgow is Scotland’s largest city, with a population of over 600,000 people. It is located in west central Scotland, on the River Clyde. Glasgow’s riverside location was vitally important in the city’s development, firstly as a trading port and then as major shipbuilding centre. Loch Lomond Key Campsie Fells Greenock Land over 200m Clydebank Port GLASGOW 0 10 20km Renfrew Glasgow Heights Paisley River Hamilton Clyde Firth of Clyde Medieval Glasgow (before 1600) The city of Glasgow was founded in the 6th century when Saint Mungo established a church on the north side of the river, near to the present-day Glasgow Cathedral. A ford across the shallow river allowed a north–south routeway to develop. The establishment of a market in the 12th century encouraged trade especially with a wooden bridge being built in the 13th century which was later replaced by a stone bridge in 1410. The University of Glasgow was founded in 1451 and Glasgow became a centre of learning. However, population growth remained quite slow until 1600. 17th Century During the 17th century, quaysides, such as the Broomielaw, were established along the river. The straightening and dredging of the River Clyde also allowed bigger boats upstream, and the town became the west of Scotland’s main port. Prior to this, large boats could only unload further down the Clyde Estuary, which led to the development of the town of Port Glasgow. 18th Century At the start of the 18th century, Scotland was joined with England as part of the United Kingdom because of the Act of Union (1707).
