Exemption from Tender - Management of Gunyama Park Aquatic and Recreation Centre
Decision Maker: Council
Decision status: Recommendations Determined
Decision:
It is resolved that:
(A)
Council approve an exemption from tender in
accordance with section 55(3)(i) of the Local Government Act 1993, noting that,
because of extenuating circumstances, a satisfactory result would not be
achieved by inviting tenders to manage Gunyama Park Aquatic and Recreation
Centre;
(B)
Council note the reasons why a satisfactory
result would not be achieved by inviting tenders are:
(i)
management of a "greenfield" site for
a short term contract (less than three years) allows little time for an
operator to have an impact on centre performance;
(ii)
aligning the contract under one operator as a
strategic cluster considers both the community benefits and the financial
advantage achieved through economies of scale and integration of existing
resource expertise and knowledge; and
(iii)
Belgravia Leisure offers demonstrated value for
money, as described in confidential Attachment A to the subject report;
(C)
Council enter into a contract with Belgravia
Leisure commencing on 1 December 2019 for the management of Gunyama Park
Aquatic and Recreation Centre for a 28-month contract for the amount set out in
Confidential Attachment A to the subject report;
(D)
authority be delegated to the Chief Executive
Officer to negotiate, execute and approve the terms of the contract of the
management agreement with Belgravia Leisure, provided that the contract is
consistent with this resolution; and
(E)
Council note the financial implications detailed
in Confidential Attachment A to the subject report.
Carried
unanimously.
