Basingstoke Leisure Park is a prime leisure led development opportunity, with the 45 acre site offering significant scope for change. The site is occupied by 12 tenants who provide a range of existing leisure facilities, but some are now dated and have suffered from enhanced competition from other leisure facilities. To the south there is further 8 acres (3.2 Ha) of undeveloped land, although it is subject to environmental constraints.
The Council is seeking a long term development partner who it can work with to create a regional leisure destination and encourage reinvestment within the existing Park, and will also explore the means by which the development opportunity is best pursued, including whether by co-investment or other joint venture arrangement.
This notice is the start of a structured marketing competition to appoint a development partner who will bring forward development and commercial property expertise to help transform the Leisure Park and put it at the forefront of leisure and recreational provision in the region. The project is key to the continued prosperity of Basingstoke and therefore a high priority for the Council.
The development partner will be required to carry out the following key roles:
– Leading in the repositioning of the profile of the Park.
– Pre development activities, to include; securing occupiers, master plan /design evolution, planning, etc.
– Undertake a core development role and apply its expertise and resources to support this.
– Being proactive in creating development and investment opportunities.
– Bringing forward proposals that are deliverable on a phased basis, set against a realistic delivery programme.
The Council recognises that the partnership will need to be based on flexible delivery arrangements, founded on sound commercial principles, which encourages and motivates the development partner to apply its expertise and resources, and to actively promote the Park and pursue existing and future opportunities which are capable of delivering the Council’s aspirations for the Park.
The development partner will have an exclusivity period to work up a scheme for phase 1. Phase 1 is not defined in terms of land take. Land uses will focus primarily on the preferred uses, namely, leisure, restaurants/cafes/bars, retail (A1), hotel and conference facilities uses. Once Phase 1 is delivered, the development partner will have the ability to draw down other land on the site.
