Environmental Sustainability this is embedded in the design and investment process at L&G. L&G aspires to create highly sustainable developments and will work closely with BCC’s initiatives, including Bristol Energy, to this end. The ecological emergency necessitates that BCC and L&G work together to reduce the carbon emissions from their shared endeavours wherever possible, including on the Scheme. • Inclusive Economic Growth: the Scheme will provide the city with office space to support local businesses as well as nurture early stage start-ups and encourage learning. The aim is to create a self-sufficient ecosystem in order to retain talent, attract new businesses and harness the creative spirit of Bristol. L&G shares Bristol’s desire to ensure that new developments, including the Scheme, provide new opportunities for training, apprenticeships and jobs – particularly for economically disadvantaged groups in the city. • Affordable Housing: the Scheme will aim to deliver 40% affordable housing across all tenures from social to affordable rent, to meet the needs of all residents and help create a vibrant, mixed community. L&G will offer an accelerated pace of delivery, with that ratio of affordable homes delivered within the first phase of the scheme. • Quality Public Realm: our shared ambition is to create thriving new districts within the city, offering exemplar amenity space, clean air, connectivity, and opportunities for leisure and recreation. • Increased Social Value: L&G will engage with the local community to understand their aspirations for the Scheme. This will be reflected in the design and use of the space. L&G will also measure, and seek to maximise the social value generated throughout the life of the Scheme. • Innovation: L&G and BCC will explore the utilisation of modern methods of construction. • Health and Wellbeing: L&G will be supportive of BCC’s ambitions in this space considering both mental and physical health in Bristol. L&G will incorporate this in the design and schedule of initiatives at the Scheme and in the wider Temple Quarter area (such as opportunities for innovative and dynamic meanwhile uses). All the values outlined above are interdependent, and will be considered together when making strategic decisions for the Scheme. In order to achieve the above objectives, L&G and BCC agree to undertake the following activities:
