Derbyshire Dales District Council, is the local planning authority for that part of its area that sits outside of the Peak District National Park.

In July 2014 the Derbyshire Dales Local Plan Pre Submission Draft was subject to Examination in Public.

The Inspector concluded in his report that the Objectively Assessed Need for Housing for the whole of Derbyshire Dales for the period 2006-2028 should be at least 6,500 dwellings.

Having considered the options available to it the District Council on 2nd October 2014 resolved to withdraw the Derbyshire Dales Local Plan Pre Submission Draft from the Examination in Public.

Initial work has now commenced on a review of the evidence base to support the future housing requirements for Derbyshire Dales.

As part of that review the District Council would like to commission appropriately qualified and experienced consultants to undertake the following key activities to support the preparation of the Derbyshire Dales Local Plan: • an assessment of the current situation with regards to infrastructure provision across the plan area • the potential need for new infrastructure provision to meet growth scenarios across the plan area • to provide advice on the viability of sites suggested for inclusion within the latest version of the Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment. • to undertake an assessment on the potential feasibility of introducing the Community Infrastructure Levy on new development across the local plan area • to act as retained consultants to undertake a whole plan viability assessment and provide advice on deliverable levels of affordable housing, and other development needs
