To appoint Porter PE to undertake a CIL Viability Assessment on behalf of the Council.
To inform the production of the CIL Charging Schedule, and in accordance with the CIL Regulations and the Planning Practice Guidance (PPG), the Council requires consultancy support to produce a CIL Viability Assessment to recommend appropriate CIL rates for the District. The Assessment will identify CIL rates which will maximise the potential for CIL revenue, while also ensuring that the imposition of a CIL in the District does not render any type of new development financially unviable.
Following the decision made on 17/09/2024 to being the process of procuring a CIL viability assessment, a request for quotes was undertaken resulting in the receipt of three bids.
