Award of Contract to HW Martin Waste Ltd. for the Management and Operation of Dogsthorpe Household Recycling Centre - KEY/12NOV18/08

With the approval of the Chairman of the Growth, Environment and Resources Scrutiny Committee Urgency, Special Urgency and waiver of call-in procedures have been invoked to suspend the requirement to advertise the decision for 28 days, publish the decision for 5 days prior to publication, and to suspend the 3 day call-in period.

 

This is because until very recently, due to the nature of the construction and the potential for buried archaeology, there was some ambiguity on the exact date the replacement Fengate site would be ready to open to the public. It has only subsequently been possible to agree the terms of the extension period required and receive agreement from the operator of Dogsthorpe that they are willing to extend.

 

The Cabinet Member approved the extension of contract for the management and operation of Dogsthorpe Householder Recycling Centre (HRC) to HW Martin Waste Ltd. for the period of 01 November 2018 to 17 February 2019.  The total value of this extension and an estimation of the variable spend related to waste arising is £185,000.
