Approval for a contract variation for
additional Party Wall matters to the value of £19,500 to a
total of £29,500 as supplied by Everest Surveying Ltd to
complete the development in connection with 100 Woodside
Avenue
Fees against re-issuing awards to adjoining
interests due to delays caused by remediation works required for
Thames Water underground assets, as well as additional fees against
surveyors representing third parties, have resulted in an overall
cost increase.
The Council could retender, but this would
cause the council to lose substantial knowledge Everest Surveying
have relating to party wall matters. Furthermore, the existing
surveyor has issued standing and expired notices and any delays in
re-tendering could cause further delays to an already significantly
delayed programme resulting in a loss and expenses claim to the
council.
