    Introduction

    Each city, its centre in particular, is a unique, complex system of multiple linkages and

    dependencies. Specificity of its areas problems requires an individual approach which

    consists in proper diagnosis of internal and external development conditions and identification

    of original, unique solutions placed in existing realities, but being dynamic developed

    impulses, simultaneously.

    Activities planned within the Katowice Centre regeneration go beyond objectives of

    urban renewal (material changes mainly) as well as urban revitalisation or urban rehabilitation

    (space and economic changes mainly). Regeneration of the Market Square-Roundabout area

    includes strategic activities, which creates new image of Katowice, the city competitiveness

    and attractiveness by possibly the best allocation of human, organisation, space and financial

    resources. The regeneration of Market Square-Roundabout area is also perceived as creation

    of bold solutions and approaching to a consensus with participation of stakeholders interested

    in the city development problems, by involving representatives from social, public and

    business sectors.

    The document is addressed to the investors as a request for the pre-proposals for

    the realisation of the projectRegeneration of the Area Market Square Roundabout site

    I-C. Its aim is to identify purposes of the investors connecting with their potential

    involvement into the project, and also to make the assumptions and expectations of the City of

    Katowice more real.

    TheRequest for pre-proposals for the realisation of the project: Regeneration of the

    Area Market Square-Roundabout area site I-Cwas sent to vast group of investors initially

    interested in the project participation. This activity undertaken by the City of Katowice should

    be perceived as initial survey of the investors interest in the project participation and it is not

    connected with a final contest or tender procedure as well as an investor exclusion from

    further stages of the project, especially with process of choosing the strategic investor.

    However information provided by investors in the Pre-proposals for the realisation of the

    projectwill be a base for preparing final conditions of a contest or tender procedure for the

    choice of strategic investor for the site I-C. The contest (tender) is planned on the fourth

    quarter of year 2008.

    The Request for pre proposals for the project: Regeneration of the Area Market

    Square Roundabout site I-C consists of two parts. First, presents the project realisation

    context by a description of the City of Katowice initial assumptions linked with regeneration

    of identified area in the strategic, social, economic, urban, architectural, location, financial,

    organisational dimensions. These assumptions should be perceived as the limit conditions and

    also as a source of an inspiration and the strategic challenges. On the base of them an investor

    can prepare the project Pre-proposal. Second part of the document includes the methodology

    for preparing the Pre-proposals for the realisation of the projectby an investor. It consists of

    an information concerning: experience of an investor in executing projects of similar type and

    scale, propositions of the initial project strategy, functional programme, social issues, scope of

    rights to the site, propositions in shaping a partnership relations between the City of Katowice

    and an investor, initial project realisation schedule, financial assumptions of the project and

    value added of an investor Pre-proposal. The complementary to the Request for pre-

    proposals for the realisation of the projectis the document: 'Transformation of the Katowice

    Centre. Stage I. Regeneration of the Area Market Square Roundabout. Site I-C. Planning

    Brief', which has an architectural and urban planning character. It also includes broad context

    of the project, which should facilitate preparation of the Pre-proposal by an investor.

    All information provided by investors in Pre-proposals for the realisation of the

    project will be treated as confidential and classified. Copyrights of Pre-proposal for the

    realisation of the project will be entitled to an investor. There is an interest of the City of

    Katowice to do its best for providing clear conditions for competition and transparency of the

    process of strategic investor selection.

    I. Strategic assumptions

    The project:Regeneration of the Area Market Square Roundabout site I-C area

    site I-Cis one of the basic measures planned for the Centre of Katowice transformation. It is

    essential for the project, in correspondence with goals defined by an investor, to assure their

    cohesion and complementarity with the records of the City Development Strategy. Katowice

    20201, in particular those directly apply to the area of the Centre.

    According the City Development Strategy the Centre is determined by the following

    components: transport accessibility, virtues of the Centre areas, urban and agglomeration

    functions of the Centre. Position of the Katowice in relation to the Centre area was defined in

    the following way: Katowice as a city, which has authentic centre being an area of location

    of lofty functions and spending free time by inhabitants and visitors.

    The City Development Strategy also defines for the Centre area the following

    assumption: Balancing attractiveness of the Centre for the city inhabitants and external users

    by:

    - new urban-planning and architectural developments and renewal of existing structures

    which forms a city buildings,

    - organisation of newly planned, people-friendly public space with cultural and

    entertainment functions, and

    - assuring a transport accessibility.

    Thus Katowice has authentic Centre being the place of location of lofty functions and

    attractive spending of a free time by inhabitants and visitors.

    In the City Development Strategy shaping the Centre area was linked with

    development of metropolitan functions based on highly specialised services having the over

    regional and international importance including: science and tertiary education, culture,

    publishing houses and social communication media, specialist medic services, commerce,

    finance and insurance, cultural and economic international events. To elements, which

    determine metropolitan function, include:

    - investment potentially perceived as an increase of a volume of investment, including

    foreign direct investments strengthening metropolitan functions as well as expanding their

    space impact, and also creation of the new functions connected with attracting of international

    institutions and global business enterprises,

    - enhance of metropolitan awareness of inhabitants defined by an intellectual development

    (youth in particular), increase of openness of science, culture and business environment.

    It could be important for preparing the Pre-proposal by an investor to take into

    account the records of City Development Strategy, which refer to entrepreneurship and

    perceiving Katowice as a banking-financial and insurance centre, as well as a commerce

    centre. Development of cultural and scientific industries and also increase of the number of

    workplaces in entertainment, hotels, recreation and sport activities are also important.

    The issues concerning the 'Centre' area transformation were also defined as long-term

    challenge of the Katowice development as: creation of the city Centre and shaping new way

    of using its space as showcase of Katowice and the Upper Silesian Agglomeration. The high

    rank of the 'Centre' has been also reflected in the vision of Katowice be the following

    references:

    - Katowice has one of the most modern centre in the country being the showcase of the city

    and the Upper Silesia Agglomeration simultaneously,

    - New urban-planning and architectural developments in the Katowice centre are realised

    by the external investors, including business and international institutions,

    - Katowice as a city where the space balance between the Centre and other citys districts

    is retained, the polycentric system of the city is kept as well as distinct and specificity of its

    districts,

    - Katowice has the Centre excluded with transit traffic, with limited local traffic and

    developed network of parking places.

    The Centre regeneration is one of the most important aims of the City Development

    Strategy. Its success will reveal a new urban reality and it will undoubtedly strengthen the

    city national and international position.

    II. Assumptions in the area of social regeneration

    The social regeneration is perceived as one of crucial dimensions of the transformation

    of the Centre of Katowice and the factor determining the success of changes proposed for the

    site I-C. It is expected, that in a framework of the Pre-proposal for the realisation of theproject the fundamental assumptions of the social regeneration will be taken into

    consideration concerning to: openness to needs of the local community, ensuring security,

    creating of the direct Centre atmosphere, working towards the consensus towards changes,

    strengthening metropolitan attributes of Katowice and the social-cultural activation of the

    local community.

    Openness to needs of the local community

    The Pre-proposal for the realisation of the project should contain the actions in the

    following directions:

    - in the scope of creating conditions of employment for able and ambitious persons, having

    their participation in the European labour market,

    - of places of employment in the site I-C for graduates of high schools.

    Security

    The proposal of the realisation of the project should concern problems connected with

    providing security of the users of the site I-C. A monitoring carried on by the security

    companies rented by the owners of the planned objects can be one of a desired action,

    cooperation with units appointed by the City of Katowice (e.g. Municipal Guard), the

    cooperation with the state institutions (e.g. Police, the fire brigade). Also the proposals of the

    investor seem essential in the range of the coordination of the monitoring of the site I-C,

    which is led by the subjects pointed out.

    Creating of the I-C site atmosphere (in a sense of psychological sphere)

    Working out and developing actions by the investor concerning the influence on

    'atmosphere' of the direct Centre of Katowice will be a valuable advantage of a proposal of

    the realisation of the project. It must be coordinate with both architecture and urban planning

    assumptions. It seems essential to contain in the proposal references to the following aspects:

    - composition of the public and private space from a point of view of its influence on the

    psyche of persons spending time in the direct city Centre,

  • 8/14/2019 request for the pre-proposal - The Katowice City Center Redevelopment

    8/25

    8

    - dominating characteristics of the geometrical space (mentioned above),

    e.g. the density and the layout of straight lines and right angles the location of junctions,

    the presence and the layout of curved lines and organic shapes.

    Working out the consensus towards changes

    The essential from a viewpoint of the efficiency of the realisation of the project

    usually seems to be the proposals of the investor in the range of mechanisms and action

    referred to the process of gaining of the consensus of an opinion in the face of planned

    changes. It needs to make the plans of co-existence with the current users of the site I-C and

    of the neighbouring areas, in particular with their inhabitants. They can embrace the following

    proposals: the form and the way of leading social conference meetings by the investor, his

    help in the scope of the conveniences of the social infrastructure (social facilities, e.g. existing

    renovations, creating new devices), supporting the modernization and renovations of the

    existing objects for social and cultural institutions, being active in a scope residential, action

    directed for involving inhabitants of the Centre and acting subjects in the site I-C in relieving

    the process of the regeneration of the area, acting of compensating, directed to the inhabitants

    negatively perceiving changes.

    Strengthening the metropolitan attributes and the social-cultural activation

    The regeneration of the city Centre should concentrate on the strengthening or creating

    (based on the historical and cultural legacy) of attributes and urban amenities, which won't let

    in the simple and fast way move or copy on suburb and the suburbia. Its potential in the form

    of the representative public spheres, unique objects as well as the institution of culture and art

    lets to promote the best quality of the space and genuine products and urban services

    improving attraction of the Centre with respect to other areas of the city. The demand for

    theatres, museums, galleries, restaurants, clubs, special service activities is growing together

    with the rise of incomes. Under those circumstances the wealthy people are more inclined to

    settle down or to visit the centre which offers higher quality of life.

    Therefore in the Pre-proposal for the project realisation one should take into

    consideration actions lead to the creating site I-C as a vital meeting place, which will be

    visited by its inhabitants, and which they will be identified with.

    III. Assumptions of economic regeneration

    Diversification of the city offer

    The richness and diversity of the existing business structure should be the result of the

    city Centre economic regeneration. Location of the new firms and institutions identifiable inEuropean and global scale will help to support international competitiveness of the city. First

    of all diversity will be useful to create rich offer of city products, secondly will lead to revive

    of the central area. The diversification will be a powerful argument for living in Katowice,

    searching an interesting job, spending free time, etc. The creative industries should be the

    leader of economic development and other changes.

    Building of competitive advantage

    The attributes and types of a land use proposed by the potential investors should be the

    framework for both internal and external competition within the city. Firms and institutions

    from Katowice will have a chance to compete with businesses located in big European cities

    and metropolitan areas. That competition forces them to improve both: organization aspects

    of business and attributes of their products and services. Very important role plays also

    a potential competition between local firms, it will build a hierarchy and economic profile of

    Katowice. It will have also an influence on an offer created by the rest of the cities of the

    Upper Silesia Agglomeration.

    Because of the highest importance in spatial structure, the City Centre should be

    a place of location for firms and institutions with a good reputation and famous and leading

    brands on the national and international markets. That kind of firms and institutions should

    generate a lot of benefits like: inflow of capital, spread of organizational and technological

    innovations, international specialization of labour market.

    Keeping up with fast changes of needs

    In relation to contemporary socio-economic changes, increasing supply in rental real

    estate markets can satisfy relatively fast changes of a demand in urban real estate markets. In

    case of city centres, increasing offers in a rental market lead to upward mobility of households

    and firms more than purchase needs. Real estate markets in city centres are described as

    durable, with dense building and huge number of the small plot of lands with different legal

    status. Besides, in the city centres the used lands are very often considered to be incompatible,

    with a number of deteriorated areas. All this factors in the exterior appearance of one building

  • 8/14/2019 request for the pre-proposal - The Katowice City Center Redevelopment

    10/25

    10

    can cause spillover of negative neighbourhood effects for surrounding buildings. The owners

    and investors should take into consideration harmonious development of the neighbouring

    areas, building and implementing technological solutions that enable real estate assets to

    adjust to changing needs of the city users.

    It seems to be important, to take into consideration in the Pre-proposal for the

    realisation of the project , the possibility of the creation elastic and different form of land use,

    especially retail space and offices, which can change easily in case of changing needs and

    preferences.

    Supporting cooperation

    Impose condition for strong cooperation should be put not only on the local

    government shoulders but also support by the investors. Exchanging of experiences, contacts,

    products and services should generate benefits for lots of firms. Branches consolidation or

    territorial cooperation can lead to the creation of brand of a place as important area of

    specialized business. It is expected that the investment will form conditions supporting

    cooperation between firms, cultural institutions, and universities (by proposition of the

    attractive location factors, creation of the common projects and events).

    Attractive labour markets conditions

    Although unemployment is not a most important problem of Katowice, the

    development of the labour market is an important part of the city development policy. The

    city centre regeneration project should have a positive influence on the creating attractive

    working conditions, on ambitious ventures, and diverse path of jobs careers. What is more, it

    makes a chance for better salaries and payments. These seem to be important factors for

    reducing out-migration of the young and well-educated people. New entrepreneurial potential

    should build and improve economic profile of the city.

    Participation in building of technical infrastructure and public places

    The strategic projects are complex. This type of projects consist of actions oriented

    both the main objective and supporting activates which are additional success source. Apart

    from establishing new buildings, effective economic regeneration of the Centre of Katowice

    is linked with creation of a neighbouring public space and technical infrastructure with the

    participation of investors. The implementation of overall approach of the project realization

    will reach the desirable results as marketing achievements, metropolitan spirit and finally

  • 8/14/2019 request for the pre-proposal - The Katowice City Center Redevelopment

    11/25

    11

    Silesian original climate of a place. It seems to be important to consider the participation of an

    investor in building public spaces and technical infrastructure (in I-C and I-D sites).

    Participation in creation of city image

    The investors of the Pre-proposals for economic regeneration of the Centre

    undoubtedly will have influence on an image of Katowice. New businesses oriented on the

    international clients, original technology of services and attractive conditions of market

    exchange will decide about the attributes of the city image and its offer. Each firm and

    institution involved in a regeneration process will have a part in the creation of a new city,

    which future position can be transformed on enrichment of brands of entities forming the

    work and life conditions in Katowice.

    Social and economic cohesion

    The way of implementing an economic regeneration should take into account keeping

    balance between economic and social aspects of the project. Economic regeneration projects

    should lead to the achievement of social cohesion.

    IV. Urban planning and location assumptions2

    The I-C site is a one of 4 areas delimitated in the Transformation of the Katowice City

    Centre. Stage I. Regeneration of the Area Market Square Roundabout'project. The complex

    redevelopment project is planned within I-C site. Current land use and buildings standard,

    established in 70s of XX century, are not suitable for an importance and present needs of,

    more than 2 million inhabitants the Upper Silesia Agglomeration.

    Developing perspectives of I-C site are exceptional because of a central location in

    Katowice and the Upper Silesia Agglomeration, good accessibility and good public transport

    connections. This situation seems to be the opportunity and a strategic challenge for the

    creation of the multifunctional building complex with the highest standard and unique

    architectural style.

    The planned investments in the area Market Square Roundabout are (Rynek-Rondo

    area) area will act as a catalyst for regenerative process (lasting about 15 year) in which

    combination of the public and private projects will generate additional effectiveness.

    First stage of the Transformation of the Katowice City Centre. Regeneration of the

    Area Market Square - Roundabout project consists of 4 areas of 11,7 hectares. In areas: I-A,

    I-B, and I-D the City of Katowice are planned the regeneration projects improving standard of

    the public spaces, preceding by redevelopment of the road system and increasing standard of

    the technical infrastructure (realized on the area of 6,35 ha).

    Program and urban planning assumptions

    The framework for program and urban planning assumptions is determined by a

    conception of the city Centre land use, which had been established as a result of an

    architectural contest organized at the end of 2006 (Coordination plan) and outcomes of an

    analysis conducted during work on a new edition of the Studium uwarunkowa i kierunkw

    zagospodarowania przestrzennego Centrum (master plan).

    Program assumptions showed in the table below, consists of maximum parameters forthe area (total floor space, number of parking places). Functions of building are proposals and

    can be modify by the investors on condition of their justification.

    Urban planning assumptions presented in the coordination plan set the overall

    impassable dimensions of the buildings. The investors can propose lower intensity and also

    alternative building planning solutions.

    There is a place for 4 to 7 building sites in I-C site3. It could be establish on the inbuilt

    area or after demolition of some existing buildings. Total usable floor space is up to 200

    thousands square meters. In a building site, which will be western frontage of Korfantego

    Avenue is demanded arcade with designed depth: minimum 4 meters and highest up to second

    floor. Ground floors of buildings located in Roundabout square, Korfantego Avenue and cross

    streets should be active (see picture 1).

    All streets and pedestrian pathways within I-C site should be planned as the attractive

    public spaces and built by a potential investor.

    V. Assumptions on project financing

    Financial and public aim of the investment project

    The project realised in site I-C has to be unambiguously financially justified for the

    investor. The realisation of public aims should be the natural consequence and the conditionof individual, private investors business target. The project can be successful only in

    situation, when each investor reaches his priorities: the City of Katowice public aims

    maximisation accompanied by reasonable level of financial efforts, the private investor

    satisfying return on invested capital.

    Simplified ventures business plan

    The simplified business plan included in the Pre-proposal for the project realisation

    should be the basic source of financial information. The business plan should include

    approximations of: investment expenditures, exploitation costs, revenues, financial

    effectiveness indicators.

    Costs and revenuesThe conditions of attaining financial aim is an identification of the project linked

    revenues and costs in the Initial financial plan. It is relevant to the investor to assign

    unambiguously the sources of the aforementioned categories and to point out eventual

    investment connections with current activity (e.g. complementary character according to other

    projects) allowing current costs reduction and current revenues boost. The projection of the

    categories should be realised in 10-years time period, however not shorter than necessary

    period to pay-out the external sources of financing.

    Capital sources and cost

    The condition of the project realisation is the investors ability to allocate adequate

    investment capital. An optimal capital structure as a relevant factor should allow assigning the

    following parameters: financial cost of the capital, availability of the capital in particular

    project phases, share or debt character of the capital.

    Eventual public-private character of the project may assume difference expected

    financial and economical return on the particular capital elements. The unambiguous

    assignment of aforementioned figures allows establishing the system of earns allocation

    between particular capital providers in future. The appearing cooperation of the two major

  • 8/14/2019 request for the pre-proposal - The Katowice City Center Redevelopment

    16/25

    16

    categories - public and private capital - may result in aims convergence in case of public-

    private solutions.

    VI. Assumptions concerning duration of the project

    It is expected that the Pre-proposal for the realisation of the project will contain a

    schedule of the project: Regeneration of the Area Market Square Roundabout site I-C.

    That will include tasks executed by an investor like: preparation of technical and economic

    documentation, gaining an external sources of financing the project, going into an eventual

    partnership with the City of Katowice, main construction works.

    The financial projections should be realized in addressed 10-years time period at least,

    or they should respect the period not shorter than necessary to pay-out the external sources of

    financing. Other time period for financial projections is also allowed, if justifiable in the

    context of the investor objectives.

    VII. Legal and organisational assumptions

    Among initially identified solutions concerning legal and organisational aspects

    shaping partners relations between the City of Katowice and an investor for the project:

    Regeneration of the Area Market Square - Roundabout site I-C one must point at5:

    - purchase of the plots being a parts of the I-C site,

    - giving the right to perpetual lease of the plots being a parts of the I-C site,
