Neighbourhood Plan Consultant

Poringland Parish Council has agreed to begin the Neighbourhood Planning process, and is seeking a Consultant to work with them through this process. The Parish Council will be engaging a Project Officer who will be responsible for meeting administration, promotional material, and running public consultation events and campaigns. They will also collate the results of these campaigns.

The key role of the Consultant will include, but not be limited to:

Poringland Parish Council invites quotations from Consultants, outlining their specification of works and fixed pricing against each part of the process. Consultants may also highlight their hourly / day rate for additional work outside the scope of their specification. Please note that the list above is not a specification, but gives an idea of which elements of the process the Committee seeks to outsource to a Consultant. This is a very open ended tender and may be subject to discussion with each Consultant (although individual Consultant specifications and prices will not be shared between them).

Consultants are welcome to submit, alongside their specification, case studies, testimonials or any other supporting documentation they see relevant. Consultants should submit a short CV highlighting their qualifications and experience.

Consultants should offer two referees from communities that they have worked with to produce a Neighbourhood Plan.
