140Wembley Area Action Plan - Proposed Submission Version17 Delivery and MonitoringDelivery17.1 Achieving the council's vision for Wembley will mean that the area is transformed from that which pre-dates the rebuilding of the Stadium. This transformationalchange is already well underway with substantial major development completed, under construction or committed. Also important in delivering regeneration, andnew development in particular, is the provision of the necessary infrastructure, both to meet the needs of the increasing resident population but also to meet theneeds of the increasing number of visitors to the area. Much of this new infrastructure has been completed, such as the rebuilding of Wembley Park station andimprovements to the Jubilee line which have increased capacity. A much needed new secondary school, the Ark Academy, has also been provided. However,much remains to be done as outlined in this Plan.17.2 The section of Brent's Core Strategy which deals with Monitoring and Implementation explains how the strategy for development in the borough as awhole is to be delivered. This obviously applies to Wembley so it is unnecessary to repeat it all here. However, it is worth highlighting again that an Infrastructureand Investment Framework (IIF) was produced alongside the Core Strategy. This sets out the requirements resulting from the implementation of the growth andregeneration strategies of the LDF as a whole. There is a section on Wembley within the IIF which details the infrastructure requirements of the Wembley GrowthArea. It includes information about potential funding sources. Opportunities will be sought from a variety of these sources to complement the private sectordevelopment funding to help facilitate the delivery of enabling infrastructure. The IIF was updated in 2011 to take account of changing circumstances and it willbe reviewed periodically during the plan period.17.3 As the council has very few land or property holdings in the area aside from its own offices, achieving the vision is reliant upon implementation of the Planby private sector developers and landowners. The council has formed and will continue to form therefore, partnerships with key developers such as GovernmentAgencies, the Mayor of London, neighbouring boroughs and RSLs as well as helping to facilitate development by the private sector. Key to this are the plansand planning guidance for Wembley which form part of the borough's Local Development Framework.Monitoring17.4 In order to assess progress in the delivery of the Plan it is necessary to monitor development in the area against the objectives that have been set. Thisinvolves the setting of targets and measuring progress against those targets in the council's Annual Monitoring Report. Given that Wembley is providing half ofthe borough's new housing growth and most of the commercial growth, nearly all of the monitoring indicators set out in the Core Strategy are relevant to Wembleyand, therefore, development in Wembley is monitored as part of those measures. There are also some targets and performance measures that have beenspecifically established for Wembley in the Core Strategy. These are set out below:
