Good Morning Brendon,

I have forwarded your question to the appropriate staff member and he would still like more clarification, see below:

Hamilton City Council undertakes a lot of activities from Road Maintenance, Library, Zoo, Stadiums, Parks and gardens etc. With the majority of them there are aspects of the service that is carried out by internal staff while some aspects are undertaken by third parties contractors.

Please be more specific in the question being asked.

Kind Regards,

Dear Melissa Urban,

I am wanting to know what functions conducted by the HCC are
outsourced. For example, things like road maintenance is something
that would be outsourced, while running the library would be
something done in-house.

Yours sincerely,

Brendon Mills

Dear Mr Mills,

Information about what is contracted out is available in Hamilton City Council’s 2011/12 Annual Report:
http://www.hamilton.co.nz/our-council/co...

The major activities we currently contract out include:

• the operation of the three waste facilities such as the Refuse Transfer Station, Recycling Centre and the green waste recovery at the Hamilton Organic Centre.
• road construction and maintenance (including footpath, street lighting maintenance)
• waste and recycling collection
• legal services

Everything else from graffiti removal, CitySafe patrols, noise control, parking enforcement, parks and gardens and visitor information are all managed in-house. These are all listed in the “Our Services” section of the Annual Report.

Kind Regards,

Dear Melissa Urban,

My request seems to be pretty clear to me. All I want to know is
what services and activities have been contracted out, and what is
done 'in house'?

Yours sincerely,

Brendon Mills
