Perth City Market Trust's proposal for a Market Hall in a Market Square for Perth seemed to us to bring into focus the urgent need to bring life back into the centre of so many UK towns and cities through bringing People to Place for Purpose.

We believe that a Perth City Market Hall will be capable of both driving the regeneration of the historic centre of Perth and in doing so to stimulate building of the Perth community through the local creation, circulation and re-investment of economic value.

“Perth City Hall is a building of great architectural significance and beauty. Together with the Kirk of St. John, it forms the focal point of Central Perth, and, seen from the Mercat Cross in King Edward Street, it is appreciated at its majestic best.”

Perth and Kinross Council's own description (above) of Perth City Hall in promotional literature remains as true today as when it was written in 1995, and we are strongly of the view that the loss of this fine building would not only leave Perth poorer financially but also create a void where its heart should be.

The Prince’s Regeneration Trust and The Prince’s Foundation for Building Community are working with Perth City Market Trust and are pleased to support this proposal to bring a new, vibrant use to the currently redundant City Hall. The Charities look forward to working with the PCMT, the Council, Historic Scotland and other key stakeholders to create a Market Hall in a Market Square that will lead to the regeneration of Perth.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

2

Integration of the City Hall with its environs is central to the physical and functional planning of the project. It will be achieved by transforming the City Hall into a Market Hall as the centrepiece of a new Market Square, created by embracing King Edward Street, St John’s Place, South St. John’s Place and Kirkside.

From the historic market heart of Perth - the Mercat Cross in King Edward Street - the splendid frontage of the City Hall is seen to best advantage, and practically compels the pedestrian to enter.

Introduction of a fresh dimension to the City of Perth as a shopping destination is imperative in order to halt the decline of the High Street and St John’s Centre. It is easy to attribute this decline mainly to the recession since 2008, but that has merely accelerated the long-term decline of High Streets and enclosed shopping malls nationally, resulting from out-of-town supermarkets and retail parks as well as internet shopping; while even centrally the trend is towards much bigger but far fewer stores, replacing several times as many traditional shop units. Another, even more disturbing, long-term factor is the continuing decline of Perth in the Scottish league-table of shopping destinations, from 4th place fifty years ago to somewhere below 10th place today, having been overtaken by Stirling, Inverness, Glenrothes, East Kilbride and others.

Redevelopment of the City Hall provides a unique opportunity to stabilise the city centre and repatriate some of that exported consumer spending power. It can also exploit Perth’s strategic location at the heart of the country and rapid population growth in order to expand the city’s catchment area, while creating an extra attraction for tourists and visitors.

The crucial missing component is a fresh food market, which will occupy the whole Main Hall – quite unlike outdoor markets or survivors from Victorian market halls. For this is an intensive form of retailing, intensively managed, as yet unfamiliar in Scotland but well established and increasingly developed elsewhere in the world.

The best example is the English Market in Cork, Ireland, which won the Europa Nostra award in 1981 following refurbishment of the original 1862 building. Both the scale of the market and

Cork’s retail catchment are directly comparable to that of Perth. It attracts produce from all over Ireland, and is officially described as:

...a civic space and a bustling social hub for the city, with the variety of products, the pride of place accorded to small traders, growing emphasis on organic products and reliance on small-scale producers – a mix of traditional Cork fare and exciting new foods from afar – with long-standing family run stalls and newcomers.

This is of course exactly what we envisage for Perth, which is similarly surrounded by food-producing country. In the same way that established retailers in Dublin and elsewhere in Ireland maintain a stall in the Cork market, so will many food-shops in towns throughout Scotland also maintain a stall in Perth.

Swansea Market Hall, built 1894 and rebuilt 1961, has over a hundred independent traders, officially described as “the life-blood of our city centre”, while St. George’s Market in Belfast, built 1890-96 and refurbished 1995-98, is chiefly famous for its 23 fish and seafood stalls. But the indoor market with a floor-plan that most closely resembles ours, with its tight grid of fixed stalls, is Adelaide Central Market in South Australia which is managed by a British firm of chartered surveyors. All four examples – and

THE PROJECT VISION

there are many more – are immensely successful; the first three, significantly, all occupying historic buildings.

The National Association of British Market Authorities, which Perth City Market Trust is qualified to join, has been very helpful, as has the National Federation of Market Traders which represents the interests of stall-holders. The stalls will be specially designed, prefabricated to a standard size and fixed, with individually metered water and power supplies from the services laid beneath the new floor, which is being lowered to the level of the outside pavement.

Traders will participate in PCMT and will have considerable flexibility to take a single or double unit on flexible terms such as rolling periodic tenancies, possibly of 6 months duration initially. With one or more agreements being renewed or entered into every week, rental values will quickly find their own levels. On rare occasions, every stall could be disconnected and dismantled to make the whole Main Hall available in clear space.

The Lesser Hall will retain its existing floor, because stalls here are devoted to non-foods with a looser layout, so do not require the water connections, and also because they will be demounted and stacked away frequently to provide a clear floor, available for the many social functions for which the Hall will be hired.

Through the simple means of extending several of the existing tall windows down to pavement level, additional access will open through all elevations other than the entrance facade. Pedestrian traffic will flow lengthwise between King Edward Street and Kirkside, as well as across the building between St John’s Place and South St John's Place, very much to the benefit of the surrounding businesses and St John’s Kirk itself.

Within the existing Entrance Hall facing King Edward Street, commanding the pedestrian flow through the building, a Tourist Shop and Visitor Centre will be provided, to meet a long-overdue public need.

Two new upper floors are planned, around a central void to create an atrium, within which a scenic lift will augment the vertical circulation provided by existing staircases. This reveals exciting panoramic views, both upwards through the void and downwards from the galleried upper floors. The first floor will be devoted to youth enterprise activities and business space, while the top

floor – with access to the existing, refurbished, roof terrace – creates ideal open spaces in a dramatic setting for a 'destination' restaurant and cafés.

The conventional developer’s approach is to sign up anchor tenants on 5/10 year leases, so that, upon completion of the development, an investment is created of ascertainable value that can be sold to an institutional investor to realise a capital profit. Perth City Market Trust’s policy is entirely different from this conventional transaction-driven development model. The Market Hall will remain in community ownership, taking a very long-term view based upon continuing rental revenue flows and least cost of occupation over time, which mandates energy efficiency and high levels of quality.

Moreover the lower cost and affordability of our proposed funding model will enable a more modest rental than in conventionally funded developments, and this in turn will maximise occupation and minimise voids.

With a Market Hall there are no ‘anchor tenants’, and therefore no need of pre-lettings. Stall-holders and upper-floor tenants will pay service charges to a manager The conventional approach to management has been to incorporate a wholly-owned management

subsidiary company, and this remains an option. But in order to align interests and to optimise both rental revenues and quality of service our preferred option is for the management and employees also to participate, John Lewis–style, in the Trust.

Any surplus income will accrue to a fund for reinvestment in the building or in other activities in the City centre for the benefit of the people of Perth.

Our Vision of a Market Hall in a Market Square is coherent and eminently achievable.

Perth City Market Trust was formed in February 2012 by founder members Vivian Linacre (Project Manager), Denis Munro (a former Perth & Kinross Council Head of Planning) and architect James Simpson of Simpson & Brown Architects, noted specialists in historic building conservation. Jim Cormie (a former Chief Executive of Perth & Kinross Council) was appointed as Interim Chair and Chris Cook of the Nordic Enterprise Trust was appointed Secretary. Nominations for additional Trustees are under consideration.

At this stage, the Trust is constituted very simply as an unincorporated association. The draft objects are:

PERTH CITY MARKET TRUST

PARTNERS

The Prince’s Regeneration Trust (PRT) began working with the newly formed PCMT earlier this year to help guide the development of this important regeneration project. PRT’s purpose is to co-ordinate the work to revitalise Perth City Hall, and advise PCMT on approach and strategy. PRT is co-ordinating a Steering Group to drive this project forward.

PRT has a strong track record in regeneration projects throughout the UK. In Scotland, PRT has successfully led projects at Stanley Mills, just north of Perth and Anchor Mills in Paisley, and is currently working with groups at Broadford Works in Aberdeen, at Rothesay Pavilion on the Isle of Bute and at John O’Groats Mill in Caithness.

In general, PRT provides advice and support to community groups, local authorities, developers and individuals on heritage-led regeneration projects. PRT is a charity that believes that to restore our historic places into active and relevant community assets is not only possible - it is the most sustainable approach to regeneration. Buildings, like people and places, need to adapt to survive. PRT rescues redundant historic buildings and give them a sustainable new use for the benefit of the surrounding community.

The Prince’s Foundation for Building Community (PFBC) teaches and demonstrates sustainable development and places community engagement at the heart of our work. Our goal is a future where all of us can take part in making our communities more sustainable and beautiful. We’re working with everyone from local residents’ groups to governments to make it happen.

PFBC commends plans for the reuse of Perth City Hall for a function that will renew it as a lively focus for the city. As the project develops PFBC would be pleased to establish a role alongside its sister charities in helping to maximise the benefits to the wider city centre, to facilitate widespread community participation, and to advise on architectural adaptations.

To set the scene, in 1844, the Council of the day discussed the lack of a building for public meetings and decided to construct the first City Hall in an essentially landlocked site between the Kirk and what is now King Edward Street (a photograph of the first CH is available if required). The Hall opened in 1845 and occupied an area approximating to the western half of the present building. The other half was an open space, almost enclosed on three sides by the Kirk Session House and smaller buildings, which was used as a market and meeting area, known as “City Hall Square.” At the beginning of the 20th century the building’s structural condition was causing concern, and in 1908 it was decided to demolish it and construct a new, larger Hall which opened in 1911 and stands, unaltered, to this day.

Concurrent with its construction, North and South St. John’s Place were extended and King Edward Street formed with the apparent purpose of creating a distinct precinct for the City Hall and Kirk which had previously been separated by the Session House. Both buildings were now enclosed on three sides by continuous frontages. Within the precinct, few of the secondary buildings are on the statutory list of buildings of architectural or historic interest and, on the south side in particular, the frontages lack the scale and quality of façade that would have been necessary to create a satisfactory square had the present Hall been demolished. Yet the precinct was within one of seven town centre Conservation

Areas created between 1972 and 1981 and, since 2008, it has been part of a single Conservation Area encompassing the whole town centre.

Until the new Concert Hall was built, the Kirk and City Hall were complementary in providing a focus for the city’s religious and cultural life. As the City Hall actually comprises a Main and a Lesser Hall it had the flexibility to cater for a wide range of community and commercial events at very modest cost to the users. The Main Hall could accommodate 1624 people, seated, and the Lesser Hall 350. For dances, the figures were 550 and 250 respectively. At the time of the building’s closure in 2005 it was regularly booked for functions as diverse as conferences, balls and pay-at-the door dances, pop, choral and orchestral concerts, school and college prize-giving ceremonies, craft fairs, flower shows, book/CD sales and virtually any event arising from a community need. Very few of those uses are transferable to the Concert Hall and have, consequently, been lost as generators of town centre expenditure.

To local traders, this loss is indisputable. The opportunity to reintroduce the best of these activities within the Lesser Hall is therefore an important consideration in PCMT’s proposal.

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE BUILDING

Ground floor significance plan above, first floor below.

Perth City Hall is recognised as a building of regional importance through its Category B listing. This means that alterations to the building will require listed building consent. Our proposal takes account of this through an assessment of the significance of the building. We have assessed the cultural, historical and architectural significance of the individual elements of the building. From this grading of significance, the design proposals have been developed.

Elements of Outstanding Significance: An element of international importance or a fine, intact, little altered example of a particular period, style or type.

Elements of Considerable Significance: An element of regional or national importance, or a good example of a particular period, style or type with a high degree of intact original fabric that contributes substantially to the importance of the building or site overall.

Elements of Moderate Significance: An element of local importance, or an element that contributes to, but is not a key element to the importance of the building or site overall.

Neutral Elements: An element which neither contributes, nor detracts from the importance of the building or site overall.

Negative Elements: An element which detracts from the overall significance of the building.

The most significant elements of this building are its west elevations to King Edward Street, and the entrance foyer, and the two halls. It is important that these spaces are respected, and that the interiors are kept as single-volume spaces, to retain the significance of the building. The subsidiary and service spaces are less significant.

PROPOSED ALTERATIONSA preliminary scheme was prepared by Simpson for the PCMT in 2011. During the last year we have been able to develop these initial thoughts; access to the interior has been achieved, an informed assessment of the significance of interiors has been made and the interaction of the spaces has been reviewed. Our knowledge of the building has increased and this has impacted upon the scheme that is being presented today.

A fundamental principle of the design is that the building is allowed to engage with the streets on every side; giving access to a new central market hall for Perth in the main hall space. To achieve we propose to drop the level of the existing floor down to pavement level allowing the main hall, side corridors and front entrance to be fully accessible to all.

The challenge in developing the existing building is to retain its positive attributes and character and enhance them for new purposes. In our assessment the north and south elevations can be considered as possessing a lesser significance than those to the east and west. We therefore propose that their alteration can be justified to create a direct route into the main hall.

In accordance with our assessment of significance, important decorative features such as the main stairs from the foyer and the magnificent vaulted ceiling in the main hall, will remain unaltered.

We also propose to keep the first floor gallery level in the main hall. More space and better circulation can be created by building a floor out at the level of the existing corridor. This allows the upper floors to be planned around a large void that overlooks the new market hall and glass screens can be incorporated at first floor to reduce the effect of noise and smells within what will be the new enterprise zone. A bar, gallery and restaurant on the top floor will be open to the market and will benefit from spectacular rooftop views of Perth, particularly St John’s Kirk. We have created a new roof at second floor over the lesser hall to accommodate the restaurant and capitalise on the potential for al fresco dining on the existing south roof terrace.

The Lesser Hall has significant architectural merit as a multifunctional space. It is proposed to maintain this room with its original features including the timber floor, altering only the windows to form a separate accessible grand entrance on the east side.

We have considered the workings of the building as a whole, the inclusion of separate uses places some restrictions upon the way the spaces are divided and we have sought to make the most appropriate strategic decisions to create a cohesive plan. A further challenge is to create full disabled access to all areas and create a framework for these routes to work independently with the minimum of intervention. To this end we have introduced a number of lifts at key points, including a scenic glass lift within the main hall space, and kitchens at all levels, including the basement.

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF PERTH CITY HALL

14

Perth City Market Trust aims to create a surplus from the operation of the Market Hall which will be reinvested in development of the Market Hall, the Market Square and outwards into the Perth environs of the Hall. The outcome of such a 'social business' model may be considered as 'profit for purpose'.

The proposed framework evolves over the life of the project, and the financing and funding requirements, and the investment necessary to meet these requirements, evolve with the model. The guiding principles of our social business model are: simplicity, flexibility, collaboration, transparency, resilience and efficiency.

We envisage four phases which lead to the creation of the Perth City Market Hall:

Concept - the current phase which ends when Stage 2 of

the marketing process begins. As already outlined, PCMT is constituted very simply as an unincorporated association, and all costs to date have been met by the members and by partners on a pro bono basis.

pre-planning – this stage ends with acceptance of the Stage 2 detailed proposal and granting of planning consent in principle. PCMT will continue to be an unincorporated association, which will be a member of a transitional 'Development Partnership' UK Limited Liability Partnership (LLP). The other Development Partnership members will firstly be the professionals involved who will cover agreed costs but be expected to participate to an agreed extent, and secondly, the financial investors necessary to defray professional and other costs of the detailed plan.

This development financing will come from a mix of grants and early stage equity investment in the LLP development vehicle.

planning and development – this phase ends when rental flow commences from the completed building. At the commencement of this phase, the unincorporated association will be incorporated as a Company Limited by Guarantee which will thereafter be a member of the Development Partnership.

There are two possible options in respect of PCMT's tenure of the property from Perth & Kinross Council. The preferred option is for the Council to transfer the freehold to PCMT similarly to the transfers to a CLG ownership vehicle akin to the Mount Stuart Trust and Applecross Trust. The Council may thereby both retain suitably flexible safeguards in the public interest, and participate in the success of the project.

Alternatively, the Council may enter into a long lease with PCMT, with all the attendant risks, but without participation in PCMT.

During this phase, development financing will come from a combination of the following: grants; 'soft' loans and quasi-equity from heritage funders (eg the Architectural Heritage Fund); the co-operative sector; the social enterprise sector (eg Big Issue Invest); from risk-taking 'venture philanthropists' – ideally local - wishing to invest in the Development Partnership; and if necessary, from banks.

operation – this phase will sit within a 'multi-stakeholder' corporate framework. Once the development is complete, the

Development Partnership will be wound up, at which point the PCMT constitution assumes its final form.

Firstly, instead of entering into leases or licences, market stall-holders and enterprises such as the proposed restaurant will occupy the building on the basis of their status as 'Occupier Members' of PCMT. Such contractual rights of occupation through membership of a Mutual are common in the co-operative sector.

Secondly, market managers and administrators will neither be employees nor contractors but will be members of a class of PCMT membership who participate in the success of the project.

Finally, investors will also participate as a class of PCMT membership who invest directly in future rentals through a simple 'prepay' investment instrument.

The sustainability of the PCMT enterprise model is based upon three elements.

• Funding costs – these are minimised through the absence of compound interest and the reasonable level of return to long term investors.

• Affordable rentals – are, by definition, more likely to be paid, thereby minimising the risk to investors and justifying the reasonable level of return.

• Alignment of interests – all participants have a stake in the outcome of the Market Hall.

Core revenues and Costs

It would be premature at this stage to do more than estimate indicative costs for development and operation and the sources of revenues which will provide a return to risk averse long term investors such as pension funds. It is anticipated that the cost will be of the order of £x million after generous allowance for contingencies.

Core revenues will be derived from Market Hall rentals, and from rentals from the proposed restaurant and cafe/bar on the top floor. While additional revenues are expected, for instance from management of the Market Square and from the proposed Youth Hub on the first floor, these are not relied upon in our business planning.

BUSINESS MODEL

15

COMMUNITY AND STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT

The Trust aims to set very high standards of stakeholder engagement during the planning and development of the project, and of stakeholder participation once it is completed.

Community

The Trust will develop a programme of events and a media strategy in order to present our vision of “A Market Hall in a Market Square” for discussion and input by the Community. In particular, we shall invite recommendations for use of the first floor where we envisage the creation of a Youth Enterprise Hub.

In carrying out this consultation, we shall engage with community bodies including for example the Perth Civic Trust, Chamber of Commerce, Guildry Incorporation, social enterprise networks, etc.

perth & kinross Council

The concept of a Market Hall in a Market Square could be the catalyst for a new civic strategy for Perth. We would wish to confer with Councillors on a non-partisan basis as well as with Council Officers in order to identify any potential planning issues and establish their fullest participation.

third sector

The Youth Enterprise Hub will create opportunities for engagement with educational and vocational bodies and other institutions that support social enterprise generally and develop youth enterprise in particular, such as the Prince’s Scottish Youth Enterprise Trust.

16

To sum up, this outline development proposal is the first stage in developing our project and securing the lease on Perth City Hall. The next stage will be detailed and will require a considerable amount of work by Perth City Market Trust and our partners. We are already thinking about our next steps, which at this stage include the following:

• To continue the work of our Steering Group, leading the project, developing key tasks and bringing in the expertise of others as required.

• To formally constitute Perth City Market Trust.

• To begin our programme of community engagement, with presentation, consultation and inclusion.

• To develop detailed proposals for conversion of the City Hall.

• To engage key stakeholders in our project, including Historic Scotland, the National Association of British Market Authorities and the National Federation of Market Traders, Perth Civic Trust and, if appropriate, Perth & Kinross Council, inviting pre-application discussion and feedback.

• To develop our Business Plan, thoroughly testing the feasibility of our proposal for a Market Hall.

• To fully develop our Funding Strategy in tandem with our Business Plan.

• To invite subscription to Perth City Market Trust from all individuals and enterprises who share our aims and are keen to enable Perth City Market Hall to become a great success.
