## Summary

The Ivybridge Town Council is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process for the development of Butterpark in Ivybridge, Devon, focusing on providing good quality affordable housing. This project targets the residential real estate industry and is located within a quarter-mile of the town centre. A key date for stakeholders is the engagement end date on 14th February 2022. This initiative reflects the Council's long-term vision following the site’s purchase in 2017, aiming to deliver at least seven dwellings, including facilities for residents with learning disabilities, on the 1.21-acre brownfield site.

This tender presents excellent opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in residential development, construction, or social housing services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as the project aligns with community-focused objectives and requires a developer with a potential understanding of local constraints and needs. Given the nature of the development, firms capable of efficient planning and delivering on social responsibility will be well-suited to compete for this contract.

## Notice

An exciting opportunity to develop a 1.21 acre town centre site in a thriving community. The purpose of the notice is a market consultation in connection with the proposed delivery of housing in accordance with this note. The aim of the market consultation is to help Ivybridge Town Council understand what the market can deliver and what constraints or opportunities can arise from outsourcing. INTRODUCTION TO THE ITC This market consultation exercise is being undertaken by Ivybridge Town Council (ITC) INTRODUCTION TO THE PROCUREMENT PROJECT Subject to contract ITC purchased the site known as Butterpark (postcode PL21 0AX) ("the Site") in 2017 with the desire to see the Site used for the benefit of the town by providing good quality affordable housing for residents with learning disabilities to live independently as well as meeting general housing needs. The Site can be seen on the plan annexed to this document. The Site is located within 350m of Ivybridge town centre shops and facilities, which includes including "The Watermark", which features a cinema and library. There is good road and pedestrian access and close proximity to a twice hourly bus to Plymouth and Torquay. There is understood to be mains gas, water, electricity and drainage to the Site however the capacity of these services is subject to confirmation by any deliverer of the Project. The Site was purchased from Devon County Council (DCC) in 2017 and it is subject to a number of legal covenants that sit with the land as described more fully in the attached form TR01. The Site is currently best described as "Brownfield." It is currently occupied by a building formerly used as a residential home. The Site is split into two parcels: * Parcel 1: the 'Ivybridge Town Council Land' (outlined in dark blue on the plan) - this is land which has a covenant to ensure it must be used for creating a total of 7 dwellings consisting of: six 1 bedroom apartments and an adjacent 3 bedroom house. These are to be used as homes and ancillary facilities for adults with learning disabilities. * Parcel 2: the 'Development Land' (outlined in red on the plan) - this land can be used for any purpose subject to planning, but is subject to an overage covenant which may inform the structure of any proposed contract. It also includes a public footpath at the west/southwest edge in blue. The plan attached shows the two parcels of land, and the public footpath that is included. The total area of the Site is approximately 1.21 acres (0.486 ha). The existing building has an approximate internal gross area of 16,250 sq ft (1,510 sq m). The Site does not have planning permission. Any deliverer will therefore need to be responsible for all applicable planning and related infrastructure and S106 contributions. ITC understands that the Site is, however, identified as being suitable for infill housing development, and is a brownfield site.
