Management and Maintenance report

This Management and Maintenance Plan (MMP) reoprt for Crystal Palace Park has been commissioned by Latz und Partner on behalf of the London Development Agency (LDA). The MMP is one of a series of documents prepared in support of and to inform the Crystal Palace Park Masterplan.

The majority of the Park is currently owned and managed by the London Borough of Bromley. The LDA took over responsibility for the National Sports Centre (NSC) from Sport England in 2006 under a 125 year lease. A key element of the Masterplan vision for the Park is to re-unite these two largely disparate elements and to bring the whole Park into one management unit.

The MMP includes a review of the current condition, management structures and maintenance of the existing Park. The plan sets out management prescriptions and desired maintenance standards for each character zone and the various elements of the proposed Park Masterplan. The plan also examines options for an overall Managing Organisation for the unified Park, and Park Management Structures to support the anticipated levels of investment, improved facilities and increased use of the Park. The final sections include an outline maintenance and whole life cost plan for the Park Masterplan.

The MMP represents an interim plan that sets out the strategy for Park management and maintenance to be developed in parallel with Masterplan implementation. Detailed proposals and supporting design guidance would be prepared as each element or phase of the Masterplan is implemented.
