Hartlepool

Town Centre

How do governance and asset planning support town centre regeneration?

Hartlepool required independent asset planning and viability advice for town centre regeneration. As part of a consultant team, the work supported the client’s understanding of Middleton Grange, its other property holdings and their role within wider regeneration options.

Independent thinking applied

The strategic asset plan clarified the asset’s position, governance requirements, regeneration options and phasing. Advice also addressed day-to-day asset management requirements and the need to support board-level decisions with clear property evidence.

Outcome

  • Strategic Asset Management Plan completed
  • Governance arrangements approved without amendment
  • Board decision-making supported
  • Regeneration options informed by asset and market reality
  • Client capability strengthened
