This procurement relates to operation of the Devonport Community Recycling Centre. It signals a new approach to the operation of Council-owned waste facilities, in line with the goals and objectives of Auckland’s Waste Management and Minimisation Plan (WMMP). The WMMP is the first regional plan for solid waste services following the amalgamation of the seven former city and district councils and one regional council. It is guided by the vision: ‘to become the most liveable city in the world, Auckland will aim for the long-term, aspirational goal of Zero Waste by 2040, turning its waste into resources.
The purpose of Community Recycling Centres (CRC) is to provide residents and local businesses with a ‘one stop shop’ recycling experience where unwanted items and materials can be taken for repair, refurbishment, dismantling, recycling and sale. Because these activities are labour intensive, they provide opportunities for local job creation and skills training. CRCs also provide opportunities for operators to promote waste minimisation through community education programmes and outreach.
Auckland Council is seeking proposals for site operation of the Devonport Community Recycling Centre.
Because the site is being developed as a ”demonstration site” within the Resource Recovery Network (see Attachment 4 RRN Strategy Report), with limited data on how much waste can be diverted through the redeveloped site (including how much material could be diverted through a new, on-property inorganic collection), this procurement is based on an initial contract term of five years , with two one year (1+1) options to extend, subject to satisfactory performance against the contract.
