Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

To act as lead demographer in respect of housing land supply at the Public Inquiry on behalf of Tendring District Counsel to include attendance at the Public Inquiry, all preparation work and attendance at necessary meetings.

Decision:

NM Strategic Solutions Ltd have provided significant advice to Tendring District Council in respect of a number of recent Public Inquirys, including the ongoing Examination in Public for the emerging Local Plan concerning the Councils 5 year land supply position. It would not be cost effective for the Council to seek other consultants for this work as they would effectively be ‘starting from scratch’ on what is a complex matter. Appointment of NM Strategic Solutions is therefore considered cost effective.

Alternative options considered:

Option 1 -
