Guidance: Project Adjustment Requests

All Towns Fund places, whether a recipient of Town Deals or the Future High Streets Fund competition should now use the same form for submitting Project Adjustment Requests (PARs).

The Department has delegated some decision-making on PARs to Town Deal Boards and Local Authorities. This allows places to modify the agreed spend, outputs and outcomes against any project by up to 30% without requiring formal clearance from the Department.

HOWEVER:

  • The PAR Form linked below must still be submitted for every change request.

  • The Department must confirm whether each PAR is delegated or not.

  • All interventions must still meet Towns Fund value for money requirements.

We have also publicly committed to a 20 working-day turnaround for any PAR decisions that are not delegated to get projects off the ground and allow for a quicker response to any delivery issues. All PAR Forms should be submitted to [email protected] CC’ing in your dedicated Cities and Local Growth Unit Area Lead for information.
