51ÂÒÂ×

Central to 51ÂÒÂ×’s involvement with the Building Better, Building Beautiful Commission (BBBBC) – a group advising the government on how to promote and increase the use of high-quality design – is the aim to incentivise responsibility to the future, through stewardship of land and infrastructure development.

Our research for the BBBBC identified that longer-term investment engendered a more sustainable, resilient, economically productive and beautifully built product while delivering more value for landowners. The stewardship model encourages landowners to maintain a beneficial interest throughout development projects until homes are sold. The development activity is captured within a development partnership agreement, such as an Agreement for Lease, providing the landscape for delivering ‘good growth’.

Watch this space, as 51ÂÒÂ× is supporting the advocacy of a package of measures to encourage landowners to adopt the Stewardship Model.
