Councils: Move rather than close facilities to release development funding Moving rather than controversially closing popular local authority-run or supported facilities such as libraries or theatres could help unlock hidden development funding sources and allow business to get at the money the banks say is there but strangely unavailable. Ian Barker, Partner and Head of Real Estate at Manchester law firm Berg, says that it’s never going to be easy extracting funding from currently super-cautious sources, but it’s definitely there - and local town halls are crucial to tipping the balance. “Developers, their advisers, even the public, should be doing everything they can to persuade their local authority to commit to putting something public sector-based in developments which have stalled, because anything with a government covenant is fundable - and once the government has committed, then funding for neighbouring commercial development is a great deal easier to get,” said Ian Barker. “Better still, moving rather than closing such a facility may actually release funding resource, maintain and improve that facility, and open up funding possibilities for the commercial sector involved in same-location development. “Equally, town halls should be encouraging suggestions from local people, businesses and professional advisers relating to developments that could be kick-started by bringing in local authority or fundable projects. “Ironically, if a local authority does close a popular and well-performing facility - which has a lot of loyalty from the local population - and moves it to a new development, then that loyalty is going to follow. If there’s footfall, then that becomes attractive to potential funders of neighbouring commercial development. “It might also be a privately-operated service, retail outlet or leisure facility that is considered to be an important element of community life - whether it’s important geographically, or to a particular section of the community. “There are quite a few examples of this across the country - everything from cafes and theatres to quango offices. The common factor is that government covenant.”
