commission the preparation transport evidence to support the review

appropriate amount to Tendring District Council.
The decision to commission evidence for the Local Plan Review was
made and published on 12/01/2024, and the decision to update the
base model to facilitate the transport modelling work was published
on 07/08/2024.

Director has delegated authority to discharge executive functions
within their respective service areas (Part 3.38). All delegations
