Housing associations appointed to London mayor’s development panel
Housing associations including A2 Dominion, Catalyst and Peabody have been named on the new £20bn London Development Panel (LDP).
The bodies join developers such as Quintain, Berkeley Group and Barratt on the 29-strong list, which will be used to accelerate housebuilding on public sites.
The four-year agreement – which could be extended by a further 12 months – comes after the initial LDP expired in 2017.
Transport for London is to bring forward three 100% affordable housing schemes on car park sites in Harrow through the new panel.
City Hall has purchased a site in Haringey from the NHS with a view to providing a housing scheme, of which at least 50% would be affordable, through the LDP.
And Enfield Council will bring forward the 725-home Meridian Water development using the panel.
Mayor of London Sadiq Khan is urging more public land owners to identify surplus sites and bring them forward for development.
City Hall says the panel offers a quick way of selecting a development partner, potential cost savings through its mini-competition process and standardised contracts.
It is available to use for both development and contracting opportunities in Greater London, free of charge, to public landowners and registered providers.
James Murray, deputy mayor for housing, said: “Public land has a vital role to play in tackling the housing crisis, and the new London Development Panel offers public land owners a quicker and more efficient way to bring their sites forward.”
