Oakham Town Council seeking tenders for floral displays


Since Greetham Garden Centre Closed Down, Oakham Town Council wants to stick with spending money on hanging baskets which are put up, under developed  and taken down and 
binned when they are in full bloom.

Oakham Town Council is seeking tenders from interested parties for the supply and / or the watering of Oakham's Summer floral displays for the three year period 2013 - 2015.
Watering takes place from mid June to mid-September.

both these contracts are very lucrative but if you are going to tender the last contract was 
awarded and there was at least a 50% reduction in costs and other tenders were also good.
Hopefully the days are gone when a previous contractor, like so many others over the years saw the council as a cash machine.  

For a copy of the tender documents and specifications please contact:

Richard White
Clerk to Oakham Town Council
Victoria Hall
Oakham

LE15 6AH
01572 723627 or

The closing date for tenders to be received is noon on Friday 2nd November 2012
