Background Information: In 2018/19, the City Council committed a revenue budget of £100k to develop the Market Square project to Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Plan of Work Stages 1 (Feasibility Study) and Stage 2 (Vision and Concept Design). In November 2018, international architecture, engineering and urban design consultancy, BDP, was appointed to deliver the work, with input from internal and external stakeholders. The decision is required to give the public the opportunity to formally comment on the proposed vision and concept design for the Market Square project.
