North East Derbyshire District Council is currently in the tender stage, seeking consultants for the preparation of a Green Infrastructure Study. This study is intended to inform the development of the Council's new Local Plan spanning the years 2024 to 2044. The procurement process is being conducted via an open competition, and submissions are accepted electronically. The tender closes on 23rd February 2026, with the contract set to commence on 12th March 2026.
