Minutes:

Councillor Tony Thomas presented the report (which included a confidential appendix detailing the evaluation exercise) seeking Cabinet approval to award the contract to construct 15 apartments for social rent at The Dell in Prestatyn.

 

Cabinet had approved the construction of apartments at The Dell in Prestatyn in July 2019 and the report summarised the process undertaken during the procurement exercise which had resulted in four tender submissions.  Following an evaluation exercise using a scoring methodology with a weighting of 70% for price and 30% for quality a preferred contractor had been selected and recommended to Cabinet.  The total estimated cost submitted by the recommended tenderer was £3,021,361.96 which was within budget for the project in the Housing Stock Business Plan.  The delay in progressing the development due to the coronavirus pandemic was noted.

 

Cabinet fully supported the development which would help address housing need and contribute to the Council’s Corporate Priority to ensure that everyone was supported to live in homes that met their needs, and the Climate and Ecological Change Strategy by building premises which would be low carbon in operation.

 

RESOLVED that Cabinet –

 

(a)       approve the award of a contract to RL Davies & Sons Limited as per the Contract Award Recommendation Report (Appendix 1 to the report), and

 

(b)       confirms that it has read, understood and taken account of the Well-being Impact Assessment (Appendix 2 to the report) as part of its consideration.
