The report set out the details of the Council’s current contract with JCDecaux to install digital information screens in the borough, subject to Planning Approval.

A proposal was presented to activate the contract’s clause to extend the contract with JCDecaux by a further five years and seek a Variation Change Control to reflect the location and volume of digital information screens being proposed by JCDecaux, which the Executive was then asked to approve.

Financially sensitive information relating to the existing contract and proposed contract extension was set out in the corresponding Part 2 Report.

The report had been scrutinised by the Environment and Community Services PDS Committee at its meeting on 25 January 2023 and the Committee had supported the recommendations.

RESOLVED: That

1.  An extension to the existing concession contract with JCDecaux by five years to 2032 through the extension clause set out in the original contract, with revised contract values set out in the corresponding Part 2 report be agreed in principle.

2.  A Variation Change Control for a Change Notice to the existing concession reflect the location and volume of digital information screen locations being proposed in the borough, subject to each location receiving Planning Approval be agreed in principle.
