The Director of Resources and Housing granted
approval to:
• Issue a Stage 1 Appointment Letter to appoint Wates
Construction Limited (“Wates”) to deliver General Needs
Housing Bundle 1; and
• Enter into a Design Services Agreement (DSA) in the sum of
£276,372.34 with Wates to further develop their proposals for
the Tarnside Drive and Mardale Crescent scheme as part of the
second stage of the tender process. The expectation is that the DSA
will be signed in October 2019 and, based on the contractor’s
programme submitted with their stage 1 bid, will last for a period
of 38 weeks, with confirmation of the contract start and end dates
and any extension of the contract term to be delegated to the Head
of the Council Housing Growth Programme for approval. This initial
sum will cover the DSA contract stage with construction costs to be
provided in a subsequent report regarding the construction contract
award.
