Surveying 88 urban renewal projects. A study of final accounts and level of renewal

Det offentlige har gennem flere år afsat 2-5 mia.kr. til byfornyelse for at højne standarden for den ældre boligmasse. En stor indsats der har været meget fokus på, og som har affødt en debat om udgifterne også har givet det ønskede resultat. Denne SBI-rapport har sat 88 københavnske byfornyelsessagers slutregnskaber under lup. Fra udgiftspost til udgiftspost er de afholdte udgifter sammenholdt med renoveringsomfanget, således man ved nogle enkle nøgletal selv kan bedømme, hvor der er sket ændringer. De 88 sager er afsluttet i perioden 1987-95 og dækker både saneringssager og sager gennemført efter den gamle byfornyelseslov. I rapporten vises eksempler på forbedret produktivitet, stigende udgiftsposter, lovændringers indflydelse på beslutninger og konkrete forslag til forbedringsområder.Over several years the Danish public sector has earmarked DKK 2-5 billion for urban renewal in order to heighten the standard of older housing stock. This has been a major effort and has given rise to a debate about whether the expenditure has resulted in the desired outcome.This SBI report focuses on the finished accounts of 88 urban renewal projects. Item by item the defrayed expenditure was checked and compared with the level of renovation. By checking several key figures it can now be assessed where changes in productivity have occurred. These 88 projects were finished in the period 1987-95 and they include renovation projects as well as projects carried out in accordance with the former Urban Renewal Act. The report gives examples of improved productivity, items of increasing expenditures, the effect of changed laws and regulations on renewal decisions, and concrete proposals for areas of improvements
