To agree an open tender procedure for the
replacement boilers and combined heat and power unit at Arnold
Leisure Centre, in accordance with Contract Standing Orders 8 to
11.
An open tender procedure for the replacement
boilers and combined heat and power unit at Arnold Leisure Centre,
in accordance with Contract Standing Orders 8 to 11 is
approved.
To satisfy Standing Orders
requirements.
To replace the boilers only, however
in-comparison the payback difference would be 1 year less than the
full scheme, due to the energy efficiency and electricity generated
by the combined heat and power unit. This option will also help the
council meet its corporate target of reducing its overall carbon
footprint.
To continue with the existing boilers until they fail. Pick Everard
advised that this would not be a preferred option for the council
on the premise that the boilers provide a business critical
function and at the end of their lifespan and if the boilers were
to fail the centre would not be able to operate.
