Shandon Integrated Urban Strategy Oct 2024

1. INTRODUCTION

1.4 Methodology: Feedback to Priority Projects The following briefly sets out how the feedback generated from the local community / stakeholder engagement has been whittled down to first 14 site specific and xx non-site specific projects for Shandon and secondly the three priority projects for Shandon. Not all these opportunities will initially be taken forward by CCC; the purpose for inclusion of these projects is to provide support to other organisations and social groups in applying for funding/grants that are not available to Local Authorities.

During the ‘Let’s Talk Shandon’ engagement process, hundreds of comments from local stakeholders were gathered. These comments were mapped and reviewed against TCF Policy objectives, NEB values, and the initial baseline analysis of the area. This process led to the identification of various site-specific and non-site-specific projects to be promoted and progressed through the Urban Strategy.

The buildings and public realm/park projects identified in step 1 were then reviewed and refined through workshops and online discussions involving internal officers and the Neighbourhood Team. Projects were either removed or adjusted based on a deeper understanding of community needs and desires, their feasibility, alignment with broader council objectives, and to ensure they did not duplicate efforts of other Council departments.

From the discussions in step 2, a range of impactful and feasible projects were identified and narrowed down to three priority projects. These projects were emphasized as particularly important during the discussions, deemed feasible by CCC, and showcase the breadth and potential of the Urban Strategy and its future implementation. The variety is showcased by including projects focused on a building (Weighmaster’s House and Butter Exchange), a street/public realm (Shandon Street), and green spaces (St. Anne’s Park and Dr. Mary Hearn’s Memorial Park). Criteria for selection • Has strong potential for impactful revitalisation of the neighbourhood. • Can be delivered by CCC in partnership with other organisations • Can be delivered by any other organisation (Housing Association / Developer, Social organisation / community group)

Criteria for selection • Sense-checked through discussions with internal CCC officers and workshop with NT.

Criteria for selection • Survey comments, submitted either via the project website or in paper form at key locations across each area • Post-it notes and discussions at in-person engagement events. • Key stakeholder discussions, including business and school engagement.

• Aligned with other Council Policy/projects. • Avoided duplicating Council resources.
