106 Authority to Award the Communal Cleaning Contract pdf icon PDF 135 KB

Report of the Director of Housing

Presented by the Housing Portfolio Holder

Minutes:

The Housing Portfolio Holder presented the report to Members. He advised that the contract was to clean communal areas such as block stairwells and common rooms within the Authority’s shared residential accommodation.

 

It was moved by Councillor R D Bayliss, seconded by Councillor T Gillard and

 

RESOLVED THAT:

 

1.    The award of the communal cleaning contract for housing sites through the County Council tendered contract be approved.

 

2.    Authority for the amendment of sites included in the contract, following tenant consultation, be delegated to the Director of Housing in consultation with the Housing Portfolio Holder.

 

Reason for decision: The current contract managed by Leicestershire County Council and let collaboratively on behalf of the County and districts in Leicestershire is due to expire on 31 March 2017.  The new contract procured in the same way provides cashable savings, which will be invested to improve service delivery directly to the tenants and/or minimise future service charges.
