## Description

Lancaster City Council is seeking to appoint a preferred housing developer partner to assist in delivering its housing regeneration ambitions for a city council owned site designated for early release within the Lancaster Canal Quarter regeneration area\. The council is seeking bids from housing developers \(and their associates\) or consortium \(with identified lead organisation\) to promote and develop an early phase market housing scheme\. Regeneration of the Canal Quarter area is critical to enhancing Lancaster's role as a sub-regional centre and boosting its housing, commercial, cultural and leisure offer\. Over the next 10 years it is envisaged that key "gap" sites and dereliction within the 6\.5 ha wider site envelope will be addressed, and development progressed for a mix of uses that will complement the existing town centre and provide for balanced place-making\. The council has been awarded Brownfield Land Release Fund \(BLFR\) money for the site, the aim of which is to unlock new homes on derelict and underused brownfield land through the One Public Estate programme\. The money will help the council to bring forward plans for this early phase housing site which would see new homes delivered to the council's exacting environmental standards\. To express an interest and receive documents please use the Chest supplier portal as referenced\.
