## Summary

The procurement process involves the sale of freehold land at Little Blagdon Farm, located south of Totnes Road in Collaton St Mary, Paignton. The buying organisation, Torbay Council, aims to dispose of approximately 18.42 hectares of residential development land and has removed prior conditions to sale to increase market attractiveness, except for a requirement regarding affordable housing provision. This tender was published on 27 November 2020, with a tender period that ended on 29 January 2021. The total contract value is £8,000,000, and it falls under the construction works category, with the contract period set from 26 February 2021 to 25 February 2022.

This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses keen to engage in residential development projects, particularly construction firms with experience in large-scale land development. Companies that focus on affordable housing would find this prospect particularly relevant, as the contract requires compliance with planning policy provisions for affordable housing. Businesses that are small to medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the procurement process is designed to be accessible and inclusive, allowing diverse suppliers to compete for this opportunity.

## Notice

The opportunity relates to the freehold disposal of c. 18.42 hectares of residential development land at Collaton St Mary, Paignton. Torbay Council previously sought to dispose of the land with detailed conditions attached prescribing delivery outcomes, milestones etc. However, this was not attractive to the market. Torbay Council has therefore agreed to remove all conditions to sale (apart from a requirement to deliver planning policy affordable housing provision) to make the opportunity more attractive to the market.
