Description

Maldon District Council (MDC) and Braintree District Council (BDC) are receiving an increasing number of Planning Applications that involve issues of financial viability. For reasons of efficiency and to ensure objectivity and impartiality, these authorities wish to appoint consultants to undertake assessments on Planning Applications to establish viability, particularly in relation to provision of on-site affordable housing or a commuted sum towards off-site affordable housing provision if the scheme is not viable. Those appointed may also be asked to assist with the development and testing of policies associated with this area of work, making best use of existing and acquired knowledge of the local housing market areas.
