<p>One Public Estate is a national programme that supports central and local government
and wider public sector partners to collaborate on property-led projects. It aims
to generate efficiencies, create economic growth (including homes and jobs) and deliver
better, more integrated customer services. This includes supporting the identification
and development of surplus and under-utilised public sector land and property.</p><p>
</p><p>The West Sussex Partnership is led by West Sussex County Council and includes
Crawley alongside seven district and borough councils, emergency services and health
partners. To date, the Partnership has been allocated a total of £795,000.</p><p>
</p><p>In Crawley, the programme is supporting local plans for town centre regeneration,
which will explore the potential to develop a range of public sector assets within
the town. The project will also look at the potential for a multi-agency hub. This
could see a range of public services co-located, delivering significant efficiency
savings and potential capital receipts for both central and local government, as well
as driving local economic growth.</p><p> </p><p>The wider West Sussex One Public Estate
programme includes county-wide projects that will consider opportunities to regenerate
other towns, release surplus public sector land for housing or mixed use development,
and deliver integrated services for local communities.</p>
