Decision type: Key
Decision status: For Determination
Notice of proposed decision first published: 15/06/2021
This decision will be taken under urgency procedures.
Reason for urgency:
The decision is urgent and must be taken at Cabinet on 23 June 2021 otherwise the award of the Build Contract to Wates would be delayed by several months with a potential risk to the Council of additional costs being applied because the contractor could not start work on site. Failure to award the contract would also delay the contractor ordering materials and confirming sub-contractor work orders bringing further costs and delays.
Under Paragraph 12.3 of the Access to Information Procedure Rules, the Monitoring Officer has received in writing the agreement of the Chairperson of the Scrutiny Committee to this decision being taken.
