Description

As part of the planning approval granted to Redrow for development of 220 + houses at the former cement works on Haslingfield Road in Barrington, a S106 agreement has been agreed which will fund the development of a small set of village community facilities. The 106 agreement provides for a degree of flexibility in the way in which the available funds may be allocated to the different facilities. Key amongst these are the Village Hall, and the Sports Pavilion with its associated play areas and car park. The facilities are to be located in their current areas of the village, and the Parish Council now wishes to commission an architect or architects to develop design and feasibility options studies including costed proposals, for either or both facilities. A survey was undertaken in 2021 to determine what, if any, physical / locational constraints will apply in considering options for the provision of the said community facilities. Following that survey a joint meeting of Barrington Parish Council, the Barrington Village Hall Trustee and Sport Group Representatives was held on 21st February 2022. It was agreed that feasibility and design options should be commissioned to upgrade, improve and extend the Village Hall, and to demolish and replace the Sports Pavilion and provide for associated sport facilities. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parish Council has no fixed views on the nature, scale and exact location of the various community facilities. However, as part of its commitment to the whole community the Parish Council in association with the Village Hall Trustee and Sports Clubs has gathered together important "client preferences" information that should be borne in mind when developing proposals. Tenders should indicate whether they relate to all or either of the Community Facilities. They should include a clear method statement, fixed price, and reporting timescales to be sent to the Clerk to Barrington Parish Council by 17.00 hrs. on 30th November 2022 at: parishclerk@barringtonparishcouncil.gov.uk
