Project Phasing
The proposed housing layout offers the opportunity to
develop a phased strategy for construction.
Phase 1
The suggested phasing would allow the construction of
26 new social housing homes on the former greyhound
track. This phase can be carried out without demolition
of any existing homes.
Phase 1a
In conjunction with the social housing the potential
private development site can be offered for
development. This offers the possibility of a joint
development agreement for a housebuilder/ developer
to take possession of the remainder of the greyhound
track and increase the construction efficiency and
financial flexibility of the project.
Phase 2
The demolition of the first three maisonette blocks
would follow with existing tenants potentially re-housed
in the phase 1 houses. This phase would involve 22
new homes on Sloan Street and four additional houses
on Lochside Rad
Phase 3
The final phase would involve the demolition of the last
six maisonette blocks and replacement with new houses
and flats. If required this could be broken down into a
sub phase to allow a phased moving of tenants.
There is in the phasing sequence the possibility of
avoiding decants to temporary homes. This will however
require further analysis of the tenant profile and
household size to define the final mix of phasing and
house size.
