- 20. Financial benefits ‒ Improved value for money, through a more efficient and effective design process and use of City Council resources ‒ Promoting long term sustainability of designed solutions ‒ The greater likelihood of getting design solutions right first time; reducing the need to revisit and amend projects ‒ The opportunity to encourage public and private sector investment in local areas
- 21. Non-financial benefits ‒ Design expertise is developed and nurtured within the council, its professional partners and community representatives ‒ The high levels of community interest in design quality that currently exist are more effectively harnessed ‒ The importance of quality placemaking is more widely understood, with a greater appreciation of the social, environmental and financial benefits of good design ‒ The design agenda and heritage value is increasingly seen as relevant to all parts of the city, not just the city centre and the conservation areas
- 24. Lessons ‒ Time – noticeable drop in activity when dedicated officer absent ‒ It works best in conjunction with other activities that provide a focus to discussions ‒ Consistency – stick to the rules and consider moderation ‒ Sustainability? ‒ Can I afford not to use social media? The conversation will be going on anyway. Do you want/need to be involved?
