The Panel received a report and supporting presentation from the Leisure and Community Manager on the Festive Lights Award of contract which is to be considered by the Executive at its meeting on the 03 July 2023.

The preferred bidder, based on the same timings, will use approx. 2081kWh.
The Panel discussed the contents of the confidential Appendix A at length and provided Officers with valuable feedback on the possible options available from the preferred bidder, should the Executive agree to accept the results of the procurement exercise and award the contract to the contractor ranked 1st.
RESOLVED that the Leisure and Community Scrutiny Panel: -
a) note the contents of the Executive report attached at appendix 1; and
b) recommends that the Executive agree to award the contract the contractor ranked 1st at their meeting on the 03 July 2023.
