This procurement falls within the urban planning services category, located in Kent, England, specifically the South East region. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, and the tender period is set to conclude on 25th February 2022. The contract is expected to commence on 21st March 2022 and will last until 21st March 2023. This opportunity presents significant growth potential for businesses specialising in urban planning and architectural services. Firms with expertise in multi-disciplinary project teams, particularly those able to navigate planning applications and develop residential projects, will be well-positioned to compete. The appointment would involve working on the redesign and submission of a planning application for a new residential development, which could lead to sustained collaboration in similar projects within the region. ## Notice Sevenoaks District Council is seeking to appoint a Planning Consultant to bring forward a new high quality residential development on the site of the old White Oak Leisure Centre car park. The Planning Consultant will form part of a wider multi-disciplinary team. A hybrid planning application (ref 19/02951/HYB) was granted planning permission in October 2019 with full permission granted to redevelop the leisure centre and outline permission granted for this element. This was to provide a new residential quarter of up to 41 new dwellings on the northern part of the site where the old leisure centre and car park are currently sited. A feasibility study has since been undertaken which has explored options to provide 81 dwellings of 1,2 3 and 4 bed flats along with 11 two-storey town houses. This option was selected from a viability and planning perspective. This commission seeks to appoint an architect-led design team to further develop the preferred option to prepare and submit a planning application and to ultimately see through the delivery of the development. The appointment of the Planning Consultant will be for RIBA work stages 2 to 4. SDC will issue instructions to proceed prior to starting the next stage as it wishes to reserve the right to break the commission at the conclusion of each stage ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/cad52d7f-d3ac-4673-9617-bf298fe4254d | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 26 Jan 2022 | | Submission deadline | 25 Feb 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 21 Mar 2022 - 21 Mar 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SEVENOAKS DISTRICT COUNCIL | | Locality | SEVENOAKS, KENT | | Post town | Tonbridge | | Postcode | TN13 1HG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ4 Kent | | ITL 3 | TLJ46 West Kent | | Local authority | Sevenoaks | | Electoral ward | Sevenoaks Town and St John's | | Westminster constituency | Sevenoaks | | Delivery location | TLJ South East (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ### Codes - 71410000 - Urban planning services ## Release History - 26 Jan 2022 at 17:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/cad52d7f-d3ac-4673-9617-bf298fe4254d ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/cad52d7f-d3ac-4673-9617-bf298fe4254d 26th January 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.mytenders.co.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JAN163632 NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the myTenders Web Site at the link provided. ## Notice URLs - http://www.sevenoaks.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
