As part of the tender, the Council needs the following information:
1. proposed installation designs; including plant room fitout, equipment selection and hot water generation:

b. The type of hot water generation shall be clearly described including any legionella treatment methods;
2. estimated operational savings based on current heating system;
3. estimated lifespan; and
4. ongoing maintenance requirements and estimated costs.

If an applicant for any appointment or Contract with the Council is to his/her knowledge related to any Member of, or the holder of any office under the Council, he/she and the person to whom he/she is related shall disclose the relationship in writing to the Chief Executive & Town Clerk. A Contractor who fails to do so shall be disqualified for such Contract, and, if appointed, may be dismissed without notice.
