Environmental Enforcements
Description: Arun District Council is seeking a supplier to administer the process of Fixed Penalty Notices (FPN's) and Parking Charge Notices (PCN's) from issuing, handling payment and all associated legal work including the Single Justice Procedure and prosecution. Whilst the contract specification defines a number of offences for which the Council require enforcement, the Council anticipates that the dominant enforcement will be for litter and, to a significantly lesser extent, Public Space Protection Order Dog Control offences. The contractor will be required to share a fixed percentage (to be set in the upcoming tender) of the revenue arising from the income generated by the payment of FPN and PCN's. The Contract is anticipated to be 6 years in length, and an approximate value of PS3,000,000.
Summary: Arun District Council is planning to procure environmental enforcement services across the district. The contractor would administer Fixed Penalty Notices and Parking Charge Notices, from issuing notices and handling payments through to associated legal work, including the Single Justice Procedure and prosecutions. The council expects enforcement to focus mainly on litter, with a smaller amount relating to dog-control offences under Public Space Protection Orders. The service is intended to provide an enforcement presence throughout the year, 364 days annually. This is a planned services contract, with market engagement intended to help the council refine its specification and prepare the future tender.
