Tender for the Provision of Planning Enforcement Services

The Council serves Enforcement Notices in order to comply with planning regulations. To ensure actions are taken the Council requires a contract for direct action where Enforcement Notices aren't complied with by the recipient. The service requirements are in accordance with Section 178 of the Town and Country Planning Act Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (legislation.gov.uk).

SCOPE OF SERVICES

Given the type of work involved and the dynamic nature of the services/work that may be required the Council cannot be precise as to its requirements as each order placed under the contract will require a bespoke quote to be provided.
