Parkfield Properties is a successful development company operating mainly in Liverpool, refurbishing properties, constructing new ones and providing investment and commercial opportunities.

Founded in 2002 by Rizk Saleh the company cut its teeth by refurbishing terrace properties for rent. The company began to grow as its portfolio expanded into developing commercial as well as residential properties. The demand for a quality, sustainable rental product saw the organisation outshine its competitors in providing a product that was tenant-centric in its approach.

One of Parkfield Properties’ main objectives is to invest in communities and areas that need it. It is important before any investment is made that we acquire a feeling for the community, understand the issues that are being faced and begin to try and find solutions which sometimes go beyond buildings, with previous outcomes including helping the youth community through opportunity and employment through to projects with the elderly.

This has been one of Parkfield Properties’ core values; the belief that regeneration and construction are about a great deal more than bricks and mortar. The improvement and maintenance of properties and buildings is an opportunity to invest in sustainability, skills as well as a much broader range of economic and social benefits to the localities.

Parkfield Properties has developed programmes with respect to local labour, employment, apprenticeships, workplace training and the use of local suppliers and contractors. Since the company’s formation in 2002 there is a belief that it is a fundamental social virtue to employ local people to build and maintain the fabric of their community. There are equally strong social, economic and environmental benefits ensuring that our local approach is one of the means by which

we can help build vibrant sustainable communities.

One of our success stories is the work we have undertaken in Lodge Lane.

Having acquired and refurbished a small number of residential properties in the area the Directors of Parkfield Properties realised there was a need and a demand for commercial units.

Lodge Lane has always had a diverse commercial offer but since the 80’s that commercial offer had been on the decline, as the number of suitable commercial units decreased. The directors at Parkfield Properties had a vision to invest in commercial units with residential above that would bring a distinctive ethnic commercial and food offer to the area to meet the need not just for the local Liverpool 8 community but for all parts of the city.

Having seen the growth of areas like Rusholme in Manchester the directors at Parkfield Properties wanted to kick start a long term project that would get local entrepreneurs, the city council and other local stakeholders thinking about Lodge Lane and how much of a commercial jewel in the city’s crown it can become. Parkfield Properties was able to work alongside local entrepreneurs to lure one of the fastest growing and largest Asian food chains in Keebabish Original, as well as successfully attracting the first UK franchise of world-wide brand Broaster. As well as attracting national and international brands to Lodge Lane, Parkfield Properties has also developed commercial units for local entrepreneurs including the specialist barber shop Pappy’s whose clients include locals, celebrities and footballers who have then also sampled some of the other businesses in the area which has led to them becoming regulars to shopping in the Liverpool 8 Supermarket, dining in Keebbabish Original as well as Broaster.

Lodge Lane has seen a revival not

only thanks to our initial investment but also to the other entrepreneurs who have seen the success we have had and begun to invest in the area providing complementary commercial enterprises. This has all led to an increase of visitors to the area and an improvement to the perception of Lodge Lane and Liverpool 8. So far Parkfield Properties has invested just over £2m in the area and we even located the company’s head office in one of the developments.

Parkfield Properties has a number of local suppliers and partners it works alongside depending on each project and the specific requirements. For the project on Ducie Street Liverpool architects Areeba Architecture will provide their services helping reimagine the properties and bringing them back into the best possible use.

METHOD STATEMENT AND PROJECT PLAN

OVERVIEW

Parkfield Properties believes that the refurbishment of the Ducie Street houses is a viable and deliverable option for Liverpool City Council. We feel our proposal will complement the wider vision Liverpool City Council has to create diverse and sustainable neighbourhoods across the city.

The Directors of Parkfield Properties are passionate about the Liverpool 8 area and have played an active role in the regeneration of Lodge Lane, investing just short of £2m which has seen Lodge Lane flourish into one of the most vibrant, commercially fertile and active High Streets in the north of England.

We believe we can add value to the regeneration of the Granby Four Streets area and the wider community by: • Helping to meet local housing demand • Improving the physical fabric and retaining the heritage character of the area • Supporting local economic development and the viability of local businesses as part of the supply chain • Acting as a catalyst for further investment and building confidence in the local housing market • Providing specific employment and training opportunities for local people Our approach is built on the strengths and expertise of our organisation but also on our values and objectives.

Parkfield Properties is passionately committed to the city of Liverpool and specifically Liverpool 8. Having already committed substantial investment in the area which has delivered high quality commercial

and residential properties as well as sustainable jobs for local people we are continuously working to devise new and imaginative ways to rebuild the area’s community and enrich the lives of its citizens. Parkfield Properties has previously demonstrated its capacity to deliver quality developments in Liverpool 8 including the refurbishment of properties elsewhere in Liverpool, notably around Sefton Park. The company has a strong commitment to restoring and renewing the built fabric of communities.

The key aim is to deliver a solution that complements other investment in the area and contributes specifically to the creation of diverse, sustainable neighbourhoods by utilising mixed tenures that respect the area’s unique history and personality.

Our aim is to ensure sustainability by contributing to the development of the mixed tenure neighbourhood directly through the refurbishment of the 13 properties creating 6 large family homes with the 4 properties converted into 3 sets of 2 bedroom apartments and the final 3 properties into 6 triplex town houses (2 town houses from each property). These properties would be available for market rent, shared ownership (for first time buyers) and owner occupation. The properties will be refurbished to a high quality Decent Homes standard. This would include the currently vacant property listed as 118 Kingsley Road which sits on the end of Ducie St. Parkfield Properties will also ‘green off’ the land opposite (2-16 Ducie St) which would be used to develop new build homes as part of a second phase at a later date.

Parkfield Properties would like to enter into discussions with the council in the summer of 2014 about 2-16 Ducie St and the type of housing and the possible partnerships we have in place with various Registered Providers (housing associations) and the different options available to us. In the short term we wish to focus on delivering the

refurbishment of the 13 properties on Ducie St and will ensure that the land opposite can act a community garden which will be maintained by ourselves.

If the community would like to use the space for community events and the residents were happy to do so we would of course provide use of the land for such events.

It is our understanding these 13 properties had been earmarked for demolition. Our approach offers a fully self-financed and deliverable means to refurbish these properties. Saving them from demolition and saving the Council any demolition costs.

Following a non-intrusive site visit we estimate that the refurbishment of the 13 properties will cost in the region of £1.3m. In return the City would be offered £100,000 for the freehold of the land, subject to survey and contract.

The management of the refurbished properties would be done by Parkfield Properties, a respected landlord in the city. Parkfield Properties takes a long-term, sustainable view to the “whole neighbourhood” approach to the refurbishment and management of the properties. With Parkfield Properties seeking to receive a market rent for the majority of the properties which would provide a yield per annum over a number of years, the directors recognise there is a requirement to ensure and secure the long-term sustainability of the area.

The Directors of Parkfield Properties understand there are critical success factors that need to be met to provide the desired outcomes which include this sustainability. Having already carried out a Housing Market Assessment to look at potential sale values and rental incomes, Parkfield Properties understands that there needs to be a housing market created for the long-term sustainability of the area. As the housing marketing in the Granby Four Streets is very much in its infancy, Parkfield Properties

representatives will work alongside Liverpool City Council to devise a PR and marketing campaign to showcase the development and ensure there is excitement and a buzz around the new improved properties available for sale and rent as well as identifying Liverpool City Council’s and the Mayor’s commitment to build more homes, or in this case bring empty homes back into use.

With the relationships the organisation has with local stakeholders in the community including with Granby Four Streets residents, community groups, the Mosque, Liverpool 1578 business forum and steering group, as well as the Somali Centre based just round the corner from Ducie St, Parkfield Properties is a familiar, understood and respected organisation. One of Parkfield Properties’ distinguishing attributes is the understanding of working in challenging neighbourhoods and it has demonstrated its ability to make positive and sustainable impact in Liverpool 8 communities.

The long term vision and community involvement of Parkfield Properties means that each of the refurbished houses needs to meet the yield requirement, therefore there is an appreciation of the requirement to create a quality product, a product that is going to entice economically active families and households to move into Granby and Ducie St. The quality of the refurbishment has to be of a high standard and that is why all the homes will exceed the Decent Homes standard. The homes will be part of an ongoing maintenance plan ensuring that there is a long lifetime to the properties. Parkfield Properties already meets the requirements of the City Landlord Accreditation Safety Scheme.

LODGE LANE DEVELOPMENTS

TIMETABLE

MANAGEMENT OF THE SITE KEY ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES Parkfield Properties is consortium of companies based in the South of Liverpool who can draw on several years’ experience in providing specialist construction and refurbishment solutions for private and commercial clients around the local area.

WIDER SOCIAL, ECONOMICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS

One of Parkfield Properties’ core values for the renewal of areas is the belief that regeneration and construction are about a great deal more than bricks and mortar. The improvement and maintenance of properties and buildings is an opportunity to invest in sustainability and skills as well as a much broader range of economic and social benefits to the localities and wider communities of Granby Triangle and Liverpool 8.

Parkfield Properties has developed an acknowledged reputation for innovation and success with respect to local labour employment, apprenticeships, workplace training and the use of local suppliers and contractors. Parkfield Properties believes that there is a fundamental social virtue in employing local people to build and maintain the fabric of their community. There are equally strong social, economic and environmental benefits ensuring that Parkfield Properties’ local approach is one of the means by which we can help to build vibrant, sustainable communities. Our approach will be to work alongside partners and key local stakeholders to maximise the positive impacts for local families, communities and specific target groups. We will therefore set out, through a bespoke community strategy, a clear action plan as to how we will develop and manage relationships with partners and stakeholders to achieve targets and explore opportunities for further innovation. The Community Impact Strategy (CIS) will follow from a comprehensive audit of local partners and stakeholders.

In previous contracts Parkfield Properties has utilised its own CIS to build up a comprehensive audit of local partners and stakeholders identifying

all potential partners with links into the local long term unemployed and training opportunities some of these stakeholders include: • Council • Employment Services (JET, Connexions Job Centre Plus, Powerhouse etc) • Local colleges and other training providers • Chambers of Commerce and business organisations • CAB and other advice agencies interacting with local unemployed and young people • Trade Unions • Tenant organisations, local community forums, and local parish/religious councils One of Parkfield Properties’ key aims is to ensure there is an offer of a unique apprenticeship programme.

With an increase in NEET (not in education, employment or training) young people in the area, as well as the UK as a whole, we feel that having a programme aimed at ensuring there is an apprenticeship programme for ‘new entrant trainees’ and investment made in young people to not only help them acquire skills and trade qualifications, but also develop as people. The management and mentoring of apprentices therefore focuses on a much broader range of outcomes helping them to develop their communication skills and both their self-confidence and self-esteem.

The company ethos is based on positive encouragement and an approach that values apprentices as individuals and not just prospective employees. Parkfield Properties’ aim is to help apprentices play a productive and fulfilling role in their communities and families and not just in their place of work.

Parkfield Properties believes that this approach ensures a higher return on the time and energy invested during the apprenticeship process. Our

approach and success is based on three key elements • A strong corporate ethos founded on family values which is practiced and not just preached • Targeted support and encouragement from a dedicated staff investment team, headed up by director Rizk Salah • Promoting positive role models for apprentices through one to one mentoring with experienced staff who can demonstrate the financial, social and personal fulfilment that flows from secure and rewarding employment It is our aim to ensure that employment and training opportunities are provided to local people from the area.

Parkfield Properties already has a formal collaboration with Blackburne House, Women’s Technology Centre aimed at supporting its efforts to open up career opportunities for women in construction giving us the chance to deliver integrated on site experience for their trainees and apprentices.

Parkfield Properties is happy to work alongside any of the agencies recommended by the council.

Working with local suppliers is something that Parkfield Properties is very committed to and already has strong commitments in place to ensure a strong local supply chain. This will be highlighted in the CIS setting out how Parkfield Properties will work with local building merchants, plant hire organisations and sub-contractors to source and procure locally. As part of Parkfield Properties’ Environmental Policy’s Statement of Intent is a bold commitment to try and ensure at least 70% of the materials or plant hire required for the project are sourced locally. Using locally-sourced materials and plant will help to reduce vehicle miles for deliveries, therefore reducing the project’s impact upon the environment in terms of CO2 emissions

and other environmental impacts. This would also lead to significant cost savings for Parkfield Properties.

We wish to work alongside the council in an open and transparent way and therefore will be happy to provide information on the number of tenders / prices obtained from all firms including those listed on the council-named sites and the number of these that obtained the contract.

ASSESSMENT OF RISKS AND LITIGATION

Parkfield Properties have a clear understanding of our roles and responsibilities within this project.

We have extensive experience of delivering schemes similar this. Initial internal risk assessments calculated alongside our funding model have already taken place to ensure that this process would be worthwhile and could achieve a real difference in the community. Throughout this process the figures provided have been based on a worst case scenario due to the nature of the properties and the difficulty in gaining access due to health and safety. This has meant that not all properties have been able to receive an intrusive survey allowing us to fully analyse the requirements for each property.

With regards to the rentals and sales of the properties this area is always a risk but a risk that comes with its reward. Parkfield Properties have the experience and know how in lettings and sales as well as developing, building, supporting and helping nurture a community. With an in depth understanding of Liverpool 8 and its unique history we really do feel we can provide added value and less risk in being able to be involved in this project.

ASSESSMENT OF RISKS AND LITIGATION

ASSESSMENT OF RISKS AND MITIGATION

DESIGN PRINCIPLES AND DESIGN ASSESSMENT REPORT

The following is a Design Assessment Report compiled by our Sustainability Consultants:

Classification: There are several categories that existing dwellings can fall under:

The materials used will be sympathetic and complimentary to the surrounding environment and the use of architectural stone features will further enhance the overall development.

We will retain the original engineering brick. Further information on the SAP 2009 L1B Design Assessment Report design aesthetics of each dwelling type is available in the technical 12th L1B June 2013DESIGN ASSESSMENT SAPWednesday 2009 drawings section.

Colours and textures will be chosen carefully to ensure the closest possible match to the existing materials.

The external areas to each property will have yards / gardens to the front and rear and will be secured by a minimum 1.80m high timber fence, thus creating an outdoor amenity to each property.

Description of Site: Renovation and material change of use of the existing properties on Ducies Street in to a mix of apartments and houses.

Refurbishment - would apply to a building that has had one of the following or more applied. A material change of use can be applied which is limited to certain applications below.

REFERENCE: S859

Material Change of use - This would be a dwelling that is created from another type of building e.g. a flat is added to a building type or the number of dwellings in a building changes.

Provision, renovation or retained would fall under this category.

RENOVATION OF DUCIE STREET, LIVERPOOL

Material alteration - This would apply to replaced, renovated or retained categories

1. General Information As requested, SAP 2009 assessments and Energy Performance Certificates (EPC’s) have been carried out on the above developments. In contrast to L1A new build property, the properties have been assessed by L1B guideline for existing buildings for the conservation of fuel and power.

Below is the information on how to demonstrate compliance with L1B and the performance of the buildings compared with the standards set out

by L1B.

There are then classifications which can fall into one of the above catergories:

falls under, in this case a “renovation”.

Classification of Site: The property falls under certain building regulations for part L1B and ‘material change of use’ applies. The property has been materially changed from a house in to three flats and have been renovated for domestic purposes and therefore falls under certain requirements for the thermal elements (U-values for external walls, ground floor and roof); controlled fittings (windows and doors); controlled services (heating, hot water, ventilation and lights). In Section 2: Paragraph 45 of Part L1B, a renovated thermal element is one that has had 25% or more of its area treated. If there has been less than 25% treatment then there is reasonable provision to do nothing to improve energy performance.

Building Properties Thermal Elements Table 1. U-values for the externally insulated fabric of the building

Renovation - any new thermal element is added or replaced > 25%.

Retained - any existing element that becomes apart of the external insulated fabric.

Replacement - any thermal element that is being rebuilt during the refurbishment.

Provision - where new elements are added (in extensions).

To calculate the energy efficiency of the dwellings each dwelling is compared with a notional dwelling of the same size, shape and set values for the thermal elements, controlled fittings and services which are applicable to the category the dwelling

* Roof – insulated at the rafters.

Openings Table 2. U-values for the windows and doors of the building

Heating Fuel: gas System: boiler Manufacturer and model type: Combi condensing to be confirmed Efficeincy of the primary heating appliance needs to be no less than 88% efficient for a gas boiler and have an efficiency not worse than that of 2% lower than that of the original system.

The heating needs to comply with the standards set out by domestic heating compliance guide

Carbon dioxide emissions The table below shows the CO2 emissions for the dwellings in comparison with notional buildings of the same area with the standards set out by the building regulations part L1B 2010. These calculations are based on the criteria above and meet the current Part L 2010 building regulations, using SAP 2009.

Table 4. Carbon dioxide emissions rate Kg / year

Efficiency: Heating controls and hot water system are to meet the minimum set out by the guidance in the domestic heating and complaince guide: Heating controls: Programmer, Thermostat and TRV’s Hot water Insulation of pipes and ducts: Yes Mechanical Ventilation None present Lighting: Fixed energy efficient lighting is required that numbers no less than the greater of: (i) 75% dedicated low energy light fittings Table 3. Lighting to comply with building regulations

Table 5. Option to improved dwellings over Part L building regulations

To gain a 10% improvement over building regulations, we have the following suggestions. The following energy efficient measures will give a 10% reduction in CO2 emissions over building regulations Part L1B. > All low energy lights > Weather compensator added to the primary heating controls > Shower heat recovery system, example Power Pipe R220 > Reduce opening u-values to 1.5W/ m2k

Conclusions: In conclusion the properties have passed the SAP assessment and comply with part L1B 2009 conservation of fuel and power in existing dwellings.

APPROACH TO WORKING WITH COUNCIL AND KEY STAKEHOLDERS IN THE AREA

Parkfield Properties has an ethos of collaboration extending throughout its organisation and together our partnering philosophy lies at the heart of our business activities. Parkfield Properties has found that the higher the degree in collaborative working the more successful projects are. Through long-term collaborative working we have found our clients have gained a higher level of satisfaction and better project quality.

As an organisation we have vast experience in partnership working with local authorities to deliver the required services. Parkfield Properties has developed, built, refurbished, managed and maintained properties and has successfully worked in partnership with councils in Lancashire, Cheshire West and East, Congleton, Halton, Wirral, Sefton, West Lancs, Wigan, Warrington, Greater Manchester, Staffordshire Moorlands as well as Liverpool.

Parkfield Properties philosophy is not only to guarantee quality output but also quality thinking. Our approach and methodology proceed from a thorough understanding of the council, its core values, its key audiences, its communication objectives. Parkfield Properties’ previous knowledge of working in the sector alongside local authorities ensures there is an understanding of the brief and a flexible approach to account liaison and meetings with the council and stakeholders. Parkfield Properties’ flexibility and account protocols will ensure that only the best possible service will be given.

Therefore our first task in ensuring positive partnership working is to

agree clear account protocols. The protocols would set out issues such as an identified primary point of contact, clear programme for team meetings, agreed timelines, methodology, clear budgeting and agreed evaluation / KPI criteria.

Having a close working relationship with the Council and other stakeholders will play an important part in the success of this project.

Our approach to working with the Council will be separate to our plans to working with key stakeholders in the area. Parkfield Properties is already an established name in the area but if we were to be successful then one of the first tasks we would undertake would be to devise a Community Impact Strategy (CIS). This will follow from a comprehensive audit of local partners and stakeholders.

With a heightened sensitivity of recent events and initiatives from investors that have failed to deliver we feel that with the Liverpool 8 / Granby community it is important that an engaging consultation occurs about the potential work that is to be undertaken. We understand that various consultation attempts have take place and Liverpool City Council has been engaged in holding meetings in the area advising the residents of potential developments. Prior to submission of this tender we have held informal consultations with residents in the Granby Area and most notably the Granby Four Streets. The informal consultation has allowed us to assess the feelings of the residents and the level of engagement and consultation required. From the informal and formal consultation the residents understood the requirement for refurbishment and were delighted with the fact there would be no demolition but wanted there to be a plan that respected the locality and the façades of the refurbished homes to retain the character the ‘old buildings’ had.

The residents were reassured to hear the background of Parkfield Properties and the work the organisation has carried out in the area as well as how we have previously managed mixed tenure properties with high environmental standards and our strong track record in local employment, apprenticeships and community involvement.

The first phase of consultation would be to hold meetings with key stakeholders from the area including but not limited to: • Council (economic development, youth service and other relevant departments) • Employment services • Colleges and other local training providers • Chambers of Commerce and other local business organisations representing prospective suppliers and contractors • Local schools and voluntary youth organisations • CAB and other advice agencies interacting with local unemployed and young people • Trade unions • Tenants’ organisations, local community forums • Faith groups The meetings will inform the various parties of the plans of work but also highlight opportunities for the local community with regards to consultation, employment, apprenticeships and trade. This consultation will be carried by Parkfield Properties alongside our retained communications agency.

The second phase of consultation will include a series of open community events which will be held showcasing the plans for Ducie St to the communities and the potential community involvement that could be available as well as the channels

they are available through. The open community events will be attended by Parkfield Properties’ Directors and if the council wished to attend they would be more than welcome. This will be an opportunity for the community to ask any questions directly to us in relation to the scheme.

The third phase of consultation following the open community events, will involve each home and business in the renewal area neighbourhoods receiving a newsletter making them aware of the works and showing the ongoing plans as well as providing a reference point (from Parkfield Properties) for any questions or queries residents or local businesses may have. The newsletter will also state any levels of disruption to the area, the working hours, the types of vehicles in the area and a timetable of works. To support the newsletters a microsite for the Ducie St development will be available for the community to view and understand the works that are being undertaken.

SCHEME PROPOSAL LP/107_06_2013_v_8

Parkfield Properties has employed a CIS on previous schemes. Each CIS is bespoke to the area and works to the sensitivities of the community.

During a contract in Lodge Lane we provided a CIS when handling the refurbishment of void properties in the area. There were a number of residents in the area where English was not their first language and our staff were trained in using translation books to help communicate with them. During a refurbishment process Parkfield Properties always ensures that the organisation communicates with the wider community making them aware of the plan of works, what kind of disruption, if any, is involved and the kind of vehicles residents should be expecting in and around their area.

APPROACH TO DEALING WITH COMPLAINTS

Customer or client complaints are always dealt with promptly and treated very seriously. Parkfield Properties always welcomes feedback from customers and stakeholders on the quality of the projects delivered so that improvements can be made when required. Parkfield Properties receives very few complaints however, in accordance with company procedure, all serious customer / client / third party complaints are reported to the board of directors. The Project Manager provides a report with the details of the complaint, the outcome and what steps have been put in place to ensure that the incident is not repeated.

CLARIFICATION OF SURVEY WORKS UNDERTAKEN

Over the past six months we have had the properties at Ducie St inspected twice. For health and safety reasons the surveys carried out where not as intrusive as we would have liked. The survey was carried out by MacLachlan Associates and their latest report is attached to this tender under separate cover. An overview of the report showed: The front elevation walls to the entire terrace are in a reasonable condition, as are the end gable walls. The rear elevation walls are more dilapidated with considerable damage at joints to outriggers, with some of the outriggers having collapsed. The party walls are in various degrees of disrepair, with some unrestrained for their full height by any buttressing walls, intermediate floors or roof structure. A considerable proportion of the internal walls is missing.

construction, adequately bonded / tied to the external and party walls.

The existing basements are to be backfilled with inert material. New ground floor, upper floors and roof structures will be required throughout.

These will be adequately strapped to their supporting walls, ensuring their stability.

These works will be carried out in a staged sequence moving along the terrace, allowing the structural work on two or three units to be carried out concurrently before moving on to the next units.

Attached to this document is a building survey that has been undertaken by McLachlan Associates.

FRONT ELEVATION

The properties have partial basements.

The ground floor structure over these basements is missing in the majority of cases, as are the upper floor structures. The roof structure is in various degrees of disrepairs with large portions missing.

The proposals retain the buildings’ original external appearance. This can be achieved by retaining the front elevation and gable walls and approximately 50% of the rear elevation walls. The remaining portion, including the outriggers, will need to be rebuilt. These will require temporary supports for the duration of the relevant works. The situation with the party walls will need to be reviewed as the works progress and closer safe inspection is possible, but some are likely to require complete reconstruction. The internal walls will need to be of new

PROPSED BLOCK PLAN

TYPICAL HOUSE SECTION

SUSTAINIBILITY

The typical house section illustrates the arrangement of the property over the three floors . Essentially only the external and internal load-bearing walls will be retained with complete new internal refurbishment of all the properties which will include new floors and roof structure.

The basic principals of a ‘Passive House’ will be adopted that will give the refurbished properties excellent thermal performance.

Passive House thermal comfort will be achieved to the greatest practical extent through the use of passive measures listed below: 1. High levels of insulation to the new roof and internal insulation to the external walls with minimal thermal bridges. Insulation to the existing suspended timber floor.

2. Passive solar gains with the retention of the large external south facing windows and further gains from the new roof windows.

3. Excellent level of air tightness to prevent infiltration heat losses.

4. Good indoor air quality, provided by a whole house mechanical ventilation system with highly efficient heat recovery.

5. The south facing roof will also provide opportunity to accommodate solar panels which will create free electricity.

TENURE TYPE The current housing offer is clearly extremely limited due to the significant number of void properties. Although there are a number of initiatives in place at the moment seeking to change this we think our proposal will further contribute and provide the opportunity for extensive refurbishment and remodelling of the distressed properties on Ducie St. This in turn will provide good quality housing to a range of potential buyers and tenants.

Affordable family housing will be delivered through this proposal, with the refurbishment of the 13 properties.

A mixed tenure is at the heart of sustainable communities and this proposal will provide a person/family the opportunity to buy their own home, buy part of their own home through shared ownership, market rent their home or rent their home at ‘affordable rent.’ The tenure types have been defined in response to this document. Increasing the number of market rent is essential as it allows the increase in diverse economically active households into the area. Having owner occupiers in the area is essential but the proposal recognises that this will be challenging in an area were the sale housing market has failed. The area currently has 12% of the current residents living in the area as Owner Occupiers and Parkfield Properties would be seeking to increase this over time. Initially we will be looking at market rent and shared ownership units. This again would contribute to the fabric of the existing and the developing community. The proposal also recognises the need to increase the provision of social rented units and will provide rented affordable housing. Parkfield Properties will be seeking to ensure that the model and tenures provided will be flexible enough to react to the housing market and therefore mechanisms will be in

place to allow market renters to be able to purchase their property in time.

Therefore whilst sale options will be available and marketed, a potential buyer will have the opportunity to ‘rent to buy.’ This allows the property to be rented whilst making provision for the tenant to save for a deposit and ultimately buy their homes.

It is understood there is a requirement in the Granby area for larger housing to cater for the demand of larger families seeking to live in affordable accommodation. This proposal is seeking to help with that demand with a number of larger properties being made available.

Following our initial public consultation the community commented on the requirement and demand for commercial / retail units in Granby.

Parkfield Properties plans to work with residents, local entrepreneurs and Liverpool City Council to refurbish units into commercial / retail units with living space above. An area we have been successful in throughout our work in Ducie St. It is felt by Parkfield Properties that a marketing strategy will need to be implemented to promote the area and the properties available. The strategy will aim to empower the area as somewhere that is desirable to live with close access to employment, education, health, retail and leisure services and facilities.

So in summary Parkfield Properties will be looking to contribute to the local housing offer by refurbishing the properties on Ducie St, with different house types and tenures.

The majority of the properties will be available on a market rent tenure with the aim of ensuring an increase of economically active households to the area. With the social issues that the area has previously faced we felt the requirement to try and keep the social rent element down.

DETAILS OF SIMILAR SCHEMES

Parkfield Properties has been involved numerous projects similar to the refurbishment in Ducie St. As a company we have been very active in trying to redevelop the Liverpool 8 area and have worked closely with Liverpool City Council’s neighbourhoods team and the 1578 group to help clear grot spots in and around the Lodge Lane area.

Liverpool 8 is an area we are passionate about and have undertaken a numerous refurbishment / redevelopment works in streets such as Wordsworth St, Lime Grove and Moss Grove. The work we undertook was to focus on refurbishing the homes to exceed a decent homes standard that would allow economically active families to move in to the area. In all of those streets we carried out full refurbishments in consultation with the local community.

Away from Liverpool 8 we have refurbished residential properties on Parkfield Road, Liverpool 17.

Purchasing a void properties we undertook the restoration of the buildings and converted the properties into luxury apartments.

Working the community is important to us and we have carried out several community based projects of redevelopment in the North West for over last ten years. Examples include Al Rahma Masjid (mosque) in Liverpool 8 , Manzil Banqueting Hall & Restaurant Limited , Felicity House, Northdale, Liverpool, L15 , several sites on lodge lane have been redeveloped in mix use commercial and residential property which have had extremely positive effect on the surrounding areas as highlighted in the About Parkfield Properties section of this document.
