Purpose:



Decision notices E2991 & E3085 approved the release of Commercial Estate Investment to secure delivery of new Grade A office accommodation at No.1 Bath Quays and for the Council to deliver the project to achieve regeneration benefits as well as revenue for the Council. The Decisions recognised that the revenue is needed to help the Council fund essential services whilst achieving its financial targets.

In recent years there has been an objective to rebalance the commercial estate portfolio with good quality office and industrial assets to reduce the reliance on the retail sector. This has been the premise underpinning the delivery of the new offices at No.1 BQS.
