Description
Proposals, including an indicative timetable, are sought from companies with the relevant experience to conduct an Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) for Three Rivers District Council (TRDC). The study will form one aspect of the evidence base for the Council, assisting in decisions on potential locations for development and the approach taken in connection with reducing the housing shortfall of the Council against its identified housing need.
The Council wihses to appoint a suitably qualified consultant to prepare an IDP for TRDC, to support its new Local Plan. The key objectives are as follows:
•Update the current position regarding infrastructure provision across the District, highlighting both existing deficits and surpluses and taking into account cross-boundary relationships where appropriate.
•Identify the infrastructure requirements to support the level and location of growth identified in the emerging Three Rivers Local Plan.
•Support the plan-making process by informing the site selection process through the consideration of provision and delivery options.
•Set out an infrastructure trajectory, trigger points, and risks which could undermine delivery.
•Identify any key viability issues that could affect infrastructure delivery, and how these could be overcome.
•Set out the proposed timing of infrastructure delivery, the delivery partners and indicative costs associated with planned infrastructure provision.
•Propose potential solutions to any gaps between committed and required funding.
The IDP will be used to guide the consideration of any major speculative planning applications received in advance of the adoption of the new Local Plan.
The IDP will help inform decisions on CIL spending across the District
