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.
