(Report of Director of Finance and Transformation)
The report indicated that the five year cash collection contract entered into by Canterbury City Council as lead authority on behalf of the 12 Kent district councils was due to expire in January 2015 with an option for two 12 month extensions. It was noted that the option to extend the contract for one year to 2016 was considered the best option by all 12 councils.
Following consideration by the Finance, Innovation and Property Advisory Board, the Cabinet Member for Finance, Innovation and Property resolved that the decision to extend the Council’s current Cash Collection Contract for a further year be endorsed.
