Members considered a request for an exemption to vary the value of a contract awarded to Stirling Maynard to undertake a Hydrological Study and Strategy at Crystal Palace Park.

 

Stirling Maynard had identified a number of knowledge gaps and made numerous recommendations for further work. An additional £60,000 may be available from Historic England to fund the high priority items.

 

An exemption was requested to vary this below threshold contract by £90,000, increasing the value from £57,250 to a potential £147,250 (which included Historic England’s original £30,000 additional surveys budget).

 

The Chairman was pleased to note that the proposed variation involved no further cost to the Council.

 

RESOLVED that the Portfolio Holder be recommended to authorise an exemption to vary the contract value by £90,000.
