The creation of sustainable and vibrant communities is a key objective of many neighbourhoods and of local and central Governments. As a result, public and private sector organisations are working together with local people to regenerate our towns and our cities.
bto has advised Urban Regeneration Companies, Registered Social Landlords and Scottish local authorities in several regeneration projects. We are experienced also in acting for organisations in the public and private sectors, such as local authorities, housebuilders, health service providers, statutory bodies, developers and funders.
Regeneration projects require a multi-disciplinary approach, involving many legal specialisms. Our team has expertise in procurement, property development, conveyancing, employment law, contracts, finance, environmental, planning, charity and commercial matters. This experience and our solid relationships with consultants and regulators make us ideally placed to assist those with an interest in urban regeneration in achieving their aims and demonstrating Best Value.
In addition, wide experience of servicing the needs of the social housing sector gives us a thorough understanding of the issues facing Urban Regeneration Companies, in particular the commercial and PR aspects.
