The landscape evidence will need to inform the Regulation 18 Local Plan and will include three individual studies: a borough wide Landscape Character Assessment, a Landscape Sensitivity Assessment around our sustainable settlements, a Landscape and Visual Appraisal of land and potential development sites (as submitted to our Land Availability Assessment) around our most sustainable settlements, currently proposed to be those within Tiers 1-4 and key junctions, and a borough wide Landscape Sensitivity assessment for Renewable energy (solar and wind). An optional fourth task is also included, which will consider whether there is potential to identify certain areas as Green Gaps, within the Local Plan.\\r\r\n\\r\r\nKey Dates \u0026 Timeline for Procurement\\r\r\n\\r\r\nTender release: Friday 15 November 2024\\r\r\nExpression of Interest Deadline: 12:00pm Friday 13 December 2024\\r\r\nDeadline for submission of completed tenders: 12:00pm Friday 20 December 2024\\r\r\nEvaluation: w/c 6 January 2025\\r\r\nAppointment of contractor: w/c 20 January 2025\\r\r\n\\r\r\n** PLEASE NOTE: All expressions of interest, and subsequent correspondence and submissions, must be received via the Kent Business Portal (www.kentbusinessportal.org.uk)**",
