Tender description

Wealden District Council (WDC) are seeking to appoint suitably qualified and experienced design consultants to draft a Design Guide to provide evidence to inform design policies in the Council’s emerging Local Plan.

The Design Guide will be divided into relevant parts, subject to the submissions made by the appointed consultant and discussions at the inception meeting: • Introduction • Wealden District- what makes it distinctive/special • Design Issues and Opportunities in Wealden • Overarching Themes • The Design Process- a context-led approach and masterplanning • Design Guidance by Design Principle • Design Guidance by Development Type • Heritage
