Tender description

West Sussex County Council is seeking to procure a partner for its asset development programme. The Council has a substantial portfolio of surplus land and property that can either be disposed of or developed. There is a consensus of opinion within the Council that there is a need to pursue a model where the Council takes more of an active role in development with the aim of improving the financial returns to the Council and pace of delivery. The Council is therefore seeking a partner with development and funding expertise to work with it to identify opportunities from its land holdings and potentially those of its partners, and bring forward development and funding on these sites. The Council also reserves the right to pursue investment opportunities and land acquisitions during the lifetime of the partnership.
