Re: Request for information on brownfield redevelopment projects

[Career/Pro <cpro@igc.apc.org>]

     ICMA (International City/County Management Association) in conjunction 
     with Northeast-Midwest recently released the Brownfields 
     Redevelopment:  A Guide for Local Governments and Local Communities, 
     which contains case studies about local governments' brownfields 
     initiatives.  Also, Northeast-Midwest published Lessons From the 
     Field.  It is a very good resource detailing lessons learned from 
     brownfields cleanup and redevelopment efforts.

I am looking for detailed project reports on brownfield industrial 
re-development initiatives.  I would like the reports to be detailed as I 
need information on the structuring of budgets, sources of finance, 
management systems etc.  We are investigating the relevance of the 
concept in relation to South Africa's second largest industrial region - 
the Southern Industrial Basin in Durban.  In order to convince  our 
audience that we are not hopeless dreamers we would like to have access 
to detailed case studies and related evaluations (of success or failure).
     
Any help in this regard would be much appreciated.
     
Thanks
