Decision details
Appointment of consultants to develop and deliver a countywide public consultation on future options for the waste collection service
Decision Maker: Assistant Director for Regulatory, Environment and Waste Services (Historic)
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Purpose:
The council’s existing waste collection
and disposal arrangements are due to expire at the end of 2023 and
start of 2024 respectively. There is an option to extend our joint
disposal (Waste Management Services) contract by up to 5 years to
January 2029. This would also extend our partnership arrangements
with Worcestershire County Council. There is no further extension
option for the Waste Collection Contract which will expire in
November 2023.
On 28th September 2020, a cross party Waste Task and Finish group
of General Scrutiny Committee made a number of recommendations
following a review of future options for the Waste Management
service.
A key recommendation of this review was to undertake a public
consultation to obtain their views on the proposed options (2 and
3) for waste collections.
The procurement process was undertaken in line with the
Council’s contract procedure rules with support from the
Commercial Services Team.
