## Description

Sevenoaks District Council is seeking to appoint a Planning Consultant to bring forward a new high quality residential development on the site of the old White Oak Leisure Centre car park\. The Planning Consultant will form part of a wider multi-disciplinary team\. A hybrid planning application \(ref 19/02951/HYB\) was granted planning permission in October 2019 with full permission granted to redevelop the leisure centre and outline permission granted for this element\. This was to provide a new residential quarter of up to 41 new dwellings on the northern part of the site where the old leisure centre and car park are currently sited\. A feasibility study has since been undertaken which has explored options to provide 81 dwellings of 1,2 3 and 4 bed flats along with 11 two-storey town houses\. This option was selected from a viability and planning perspective\. This commission seeks to appoint an architect-led design team to further develop the preferred option to prepare and submit a planning application and to ultimately see through the delivery of the development\. The appointment of the Planning Consultant will be for RIBA work stages 2 to 4\. SDC will issue instructions to proceed prior to starting the next stage as it wishes to reserve the right to break the commission at the conclusion of each stage
