5 Gnoll Park Visitors Centre Canopy and Solar Energy Scheme PDF 104 KB
Minutes:
Decision:
That
further to Contract Standing Orders 2.1 (5) approval be
granted to accept a single tender from GB-Sol Ltd for a 21.85KW solar
generation scheme at a cost of £69,956.70.
Reason for Decision:
The
decision will enable an alfresco café extension and solar energy scheme to be
implemented at the Gnoll. A single tender is proposed in this instance
as a large part of the scheme is of a specialist nature of which the Council
currently has limited experience. This
makes it difficult to adequately specify with certainty the associated
technical requirements which can be overcome by negotiating and directly
contracting with an experienced solar energy contractor. The experience gained will inform the Council’s
procurement of future schemes.
Implementation of Decision:
The
decision is proposed for implementation after the three day call in period.
