For the Director of Housing, Regeneration and
Planning to approve a waiver of CSO 9.01 (requirement to obtain at
least three competitive quotations) as allowed under CSO 10.01.1.b,
as it is in the Council’s overall interest as allowed under
CSO 10.01.2.d (ii)
For the Director of Housing, Regeneration and Planning to approve
the award of a contract to UK Power Networks up to a maximum value
of C250,000 as allowed under CSO 9.07.1 (c
Cabinet agreed to demolish Tangmere in
November 2018. Ahead of demolishing the building essential enabling
works are required including the relocation of an electrical sub-
station.
UKPN own the electrical distribution network and are therefore the
only contractor available to do this work.
Doing nothing was ruled out because Cabinet
has approved the demolition of Tangmere and these works are
essential to progress these works.
Undertaking a competitive procurement process was ruled out as the
electrical network and sub- stations are owned by UKPN and they are
the only provider with the rights to undertake any adaptions and
alterations to their distribution network.
