Decisions:
RESOLVED:
That:
1) the tender from APCOA Parking UK Limited for the provision of an Environmental On-Street Enforcement Service to the London Borough of Hillingdon for a five-year period from 16 December 2025 to 15 December 2030 at the total value of £2,907,653.63 following a procurement exercise as set out in the Tender Appendix, be approved.
2) this includes the provision to extend the contract for a one-year period (6 years in total), delegating approval of any extension to the Corporate Director of Homes and Communities, in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Community and Environment.
Reasons for decision
The Cabinet Member for Community and Environment introduced a report and moved recommendations, which Cabinet agreed, to accept a contract for the Environmental Enforcement Service. The Cabinet Member advised that the intention of the contract was to be self-financing.
Alternative options considered and rejected
Cabinet could have decided to terminate the enforcement scheme, but this was rejected due to its effectiveness in rapid response, deterrence, and cost recovery. Cabinet could have also decided to bring the service in-house, but this was dismissed as it would have required substantial investment and not have offered best value.

Private - Whilst the Cabinet's decisions above are always made public, the officer report relating to this matter is not because it was considered in the private part of the meeting and contained information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the Authority holding that information) and the public interest in withholding the information outweighed the public interest in disclosing it in accordance with Section 100(A) and paragraph 3 of Part 1 of Schedule 12 (A) to the Local Government Act 1972 (as amended). |
