Issue - meetings

(Report of the Director of Urban Environment): To recommend an award of contract to carry out decent homes work to sheltered housing stock and the conversion of the Parklands Road hostel into 9 x 3 bed roomed flats. To follow

Our Chair agreed to admit the report as urgent business. The report was late because of necessary consultations. The report was too urgent to await the next meeting because the contractors would incur costs if the contract did not start by late May 2010.

The Appendix to the interleaved report was the subject of a motion to exclude the press and public from the meeting as it contained exempt information relating to the business or financial affairs of any particular person.

We noted that the report sought approval to award a contract for a detailed programme of works, which related to 788 properties within the delivery of the Homes for Haringey Decent Homes Sheltered Housing (Internal and External Works) and Former Hostel Units - Parklands Hostel N22.

RESOLVED

1.      That in order to facilitate the delivery of the Decent Homes works approval be granted to the package of works detailed in the interleaved report.

2.      That in accordance with Contract Standing Order 11.03 approval be granted in principle to award the contract for the Homes for Haringey Decent Homes Sheltered Housing (Internal and External Works) and Former Hostel Units - Parklands Hostel N22 based on highest Tender OJEU score achieved based on quality and price to Breyer Group Ltd.

3.      That the estimated cost excluding fees as detailed in the Appendix to the interleaved report be noted.
