Richmond Village Green and Playground Upgrade - Design & Documentation Consultancy

Overview Clarence City Council (CCC) invites Quotations from suitably qualified Respondents to undertake a consultancy for the preparation of an Issue for Tender Package for the upgrade of the Richmond Village Green and playground at 54-56 Bridge Street, Richmond, Tasmania 7025. About The Richmond Village Green and Playground Upgrade is the first project proposed for delivery under the Richmond Village Master Plan 2026, a strategic framework adopted by CCC in June 2026 to guide planning, investment and development within Richmond over the next 20 years. The Master Plan was developed and informed by engagement with residents, business and key stakeholders. It establishes a vision for enhancing Richmond's public spaces while protecting the village's nationally significant heritage values and character. Key priorities include improvements to accessibility, pedestrian safety, visitor management and the quality of public open spaces. As the first priority project identified within the Master Plan, this project is intended to contribute to these objectives by enhancing a key community gathering space for residents and visitors. Funding has been secured for the design phase of the project, including technical investigations and community engagement to inform the development of a preferred design. The Master Plan establishes the preferred concept for the project. The role of the Consultant is to validate, refine and further develop the Master Plan recommendations through concept design, community engagement, cost planning, detailed design and construction documentation, rather than prepare alternative precinct concepts. Purpose The purpose of this consultancy is to prepare a complete and coordinated design and documentation package to support future implementation of the project. While funding has been secured for the design phase, construction funding may be subject to future funding availability. Respondents should therefore assume that the primary outcome of this consultancy is the preparation of a tender-ready package for future procurement. Scope The scope includes: Preparation of an Issue for Tender Package for the upgrade of the Richmond Village Green and playground Preparation of concept design, detailed design, drawings, details, schedules, specifications and supporting documentation as required under the Contract Validating, refining and further developing the Master Plan recommendations through concept design, community engagement, cost planning, detailed design and construction documentation Contractor Requirements Respondents must be suitably qualified to undertake the consultancy Tender Briefing and Site Inspection A pre-Quotation site meeting is scheduled for clarification of the Services.
