  1. New approach to infrastructure • Proposed LDP policies on Delivery • Role of Action Programme • New guidance on Developer Contributions and Affordable Housing • Corporate budget role • New officer action group to coordinate

  2. The aims of the LDP are: • AIM 1: Support the growth of the city economy • AIM 2: Help increase the number and improve the quality of new homes • AIM 3: Help ensure that the citizens of Edinburgh can get around easily by sustainable transport modes to access jobs and services • AIM 4: Look after and improve our environment for future generations in a changing climate • AIM 5: Help create strong, sustainable communities, enabling all residents to enjoy a high quality of life.

  3. LDP Delivery: • Recognising that adopting the plan isn’t the end of the story and growth does not pay for itself • Approach which: • focuses developer contributions on a reduced range of infrastructure measures • acknowledges that development value is frequently not sufficient to meet the full cost of associated infrastructure enhancements • take advantage of requirement for a statutory Action Programme

  4. Action Programme Approach • Lists essential infrastructure improvements and actions to deliver the LDP • Updated at least annually • Developer contributions will be taken towards relevant actions in the Council’s Action Programme • Contribution Zones for actions which are needed to mitigate impact of development across a wide area

  5. A corporate approach • To be successful the AP need to be prepared and approved as a corporate document – agreed at Corporate Policy & Strategy Committee • Future APs will be reported corporately for approval and as a input to the budget setting process. • Corporate Action Group set up to deliver AP

  6. LDP Action Group • Approve annual updates • Refer actions for implementation • Consider cumulative viability • Identify funding gaps arising, borrowing and budget implications • Identify where actions will rely on Key Agencies and/or Scottish Government • Explore a range of funding solutions
