Award of Joint Contract: Cash Collections
From: Constitution - Monday, 27th October, 2025 - October 27, 2025
The Procurement Forward Programme was considered by Crawley Borough Council’s Cabinet on 24 July 2024 (FIN/661 refers) where it was agreed that award of this contract would be delegated to the Leader. However, it was subsequently agreed that Horsham District Council (HDC) would be acting as Lead Authority and would award the contract on behalf of all Authorities involved. Therefore, the Leader of Crawley Borough Council was not required to action the award of contract. On 25 September 2024 HDC considered the matter and resolved to “approve the award of a cash collections contract to the winning bidder following the conclusion of the procurement exercise”. The procurement exercise has now been completed by HDC and the final scores following the evaluation & moderation have been published in information bulletin IB/1257 (for Councillors only).
Recommendations Approved
Crawley Community Youth Service: Discretionary Rent Relief
From: Constitution - Monday, 27th October, 2025 - October 27, 2025
Crawley Community Youth Service (CCYS) have recently had a rent review for the lease of Bewbush Community Centre which resulted in a significant increase. CCYS provide a much needed service to young people living in Crawley. Without them, there would be a gap in youth provision that very few, if any, other providers could fill. The proposed financial increase would put the organisation at risk of folding. It has been agreed, with both the Facilities Manager (Rob Channon) and the Cabinet Member for Leisure and Wellbeing (Cllr Chris Mullins), that CCYS be included within the list of organisations eligible for discretionary rent relief (DRR). This permits CCYS to submit a formal application for DRR, applicable only to the proposed increased element of the revised lease agreement. To confirm, this has been agreed by both the Facilities Manager and Cllr Chris Mullins.
Recommendations Approved
