The ‘Place Principle’ was adopted by the Scottish Government and COSLA in February 2018 as part of a long-term plan in Scotland for the development and infrastructure needed to support sustainable and inclusive local growth.

Scottish Borders Council intends to create a Framework Agreement for the provision of 'Place Making Consultancy Services’.
Within the contract the successful consultants would be required to resource, facilitate and support the place making initiatives of the Council, and deliver documentation to support and evidence the consultative work.

II.2.4) Disgrifiad o’r caffaeliad
Lot 1 is for the provision of community facilitation for collaboration between community groups to form a steering group to develop a Local Place Plan. This will encompass the ideas and aspirations of the contributors and will be a foundational document for change within the commissioning community. This will include provision for engagement with the Local Authority planning department on proposals being adopted in to planning legislation.
The development of the Local Place Plan itself seeks to create a scaffold around which the ambitions of a community can be formed into a holistic plan that takes into account past and present work streams, and builds on the local skills, aspirations and lived experience of residents to enact change.
The role of the Consultant is to encourage the community to take ownership, and develop their own plan, bringing in voices from all demographics, and use the lived experience of residents as the foundations for all engagement and presentation of information.
The development of a Local Place Plan will require support from a multi skilled Consultant to provide structure and expertise at various stages of a plan’s development. Consultants may be commissioned to support the coproduction of a community plan for all, or some of the stages.

II.2.4) Disgrifiad o’r caffaeliad
Lot 2 is for the formation of Town or Community Investment Plan to support the delivery of the objectives outlined within the Local Place Plans. This will include economic strategy and business planning to drive investment into community proposed projects and initiatives.
Town Investment Plan (TIP) is a term that has appeared against a number of recent funds as the blanket term for the socio-economic strategy for investment within the community it references. Like much of Place Making terminology, it considers a community as a town, and given the rural nature of Scottish Borders, we are reframing this as a Town or Community Investment Plan to recognise the diversity of our community groups and the opportunity for plans to be developed by clusters of smaller settlements when this makes economic sense, or is the will of the community.
The intention for the purposes of this framework is that TIP or Community Investment Plans (CIP) follow the development of a Local Place Plan (through means of Lot 1, or by other arrangements).
The TIP / CIP is a working document which moves the community’s aspirations, ideas and objectives into a light touch business case, aligned to the Treasury Green Book five case model.
