Description

Castle Point Borough Council in South Essex is currently producing a new Development Plan for the borough. The Council intends to submit the Local Plan to the Secretary of State in May 2025 when all associated actions are planned to have completed. As part of the process a viability assessment is required to support the submission and examination of the Local Plan, to inform the Council what level of affordable housing and s106 requirements are appropriate without rendering new development in the borough unviable. A draft report and comment, setting out all the assessment work undertaken and findings, prior to the completion of the updated viability assessment of the Local Plan is required.
Applicants will be required to submit, as a minimum, the following: a method statement, a timetable setting out all tasks, examples of similar work, CVs for all members of the team and fee proposals.
Quotations must be made in either pdf format or in a format which is compatible with Office 365 and documents submitted via the Castle Point Plan mailbox be no later than 12.00 noon on Tuesday 9th July 2024.
