Projected Spencers Wood primary school
See notes
1. Please supply a statement of the costs incurred up to 19 July 2024 in the design of the projected new school in Spencers Wood. (Planning Application 241861 refers.) The statement should include all expenditure on architects, consultants employed on the scheme (including drainage, ground investigation, environmental factors professionals and any others). An itemised list of payments is not sought, merely a sum total of expenditure on professional advice and design work on the school and its curtilage as presented in the application..
There should also be an estimate, presented as a separate figure, of the cost of the time devoted to managing this project internally
The Council has spent £53,868.42 on consultants to design the school and as necessary to facilitate the planning submission on 19th July 2024.
The Council would usually budget a sum of 4-5% of the contract fee for the internal management on a project of this nature. The final figure will however be dependent upon the level of input required across the project and will be agreed with the budget manager and capitalised against the project in due course.
