As part of the evidence for its emerging Local Plan, the Council is seeking to appoint suitably qualified consultants to undertake a Retail and Commercial Leisure Needs Assessment across the District\.

The Assessment will be used to inform analysis of future development needs and expenditure patterns and also advise on how the Council can boost the resilience of the retail and commercial leisure sectors of Huntingdonshire’s market towns\.
