Cork City Council Social Housing Programme 2015-2017

Description

The ‘Cork City Council Social Housing Programme 2015-2017’ is a major part of Cork City Council’s delivery plan for the ‘Social Housing Strategy’ as approved by Government in November 2014. Through the competitive dialogue procedure the Council wishes to engage with the Candidates to identify and define the best means suited to meeting its requirements whether by means of solutions such as the: • provision of suitable sites, carrying out design and obtaining appropriate planning permissions on selected sites in partnership with Cork City Council, • construction and completion of the resulting housing projects ready for occupation by residents under a parallel site acquisition and development agreement with the Council entitled the ‘Cork City Council Social Housing Programme 2015-2017’, • completion and transfer of suitable unfinished housing schemes or housing units, • construction of additional units in existing housing schemes. The scope of the contract best suited to the Contracting Authority’s requirements will be explored and determined during the competitive dialogue process. It is possible that the Dialogue phase will be carried out in stages and that the number of Candidates will be reduced through the Dialogue process. Candidates, in submitting their responses to the Suitability Questionnaire, are required to provide information regarding their ability to provide a site or sites for the required housing and the location of the site or sites.
