Councillor Eddie Lavery – Cabinet Member for Residents’
Services
Councillor Martin Goddard – Cabinet Member for Finance
Decision Approved
That the Cabinet Member for Residents’ Services and
Cabinet Member for Finance:
1) Approved the allocation of £393K Chrysalis funding
for the four new projects detailed within the body of
this report as part of the asset enhancement
programme for 2023/24;
2) Accepted the tender from Sovereign Sports Limited
for the tennis court refurbishments at Hillingdon
Court Park (Lot 1) and Cavendish Recreation Ground
(Lot 2) at a total value of £144k; and
3) Agreed to the capital release request of £393K from
the 2023/24 Chrysalis Programme budget to fund the
four projects detailed within the body of the report
(Appendix A).
Reason for decision Hillingdon Council is striving to be the greenest London
Borough, to protect and enhance the environment, and to
provide a brighter prospect for future generations. Chrysalis, the
Council’s asset enhancement initiative, funds projects ranging

in scale from £5,000 to £100,000 for local initiatives that matter
to residents.
Residents are encouraged to make suggestions for Chrysalis
funding as the most effective way for local people to identify
environmental and community safety projects and
demonstrating how all residents can play an active part in
decisions, making them proud to live in Hillingdon.
Alternative options
considered and
rejected
The Cabinet Members could decide not to accept the
recommendations and therefore, either some or none of the four
new projects would be able to proceed. Improvements which
have been requested by residents and Ward Councillors cannot
then be realised.
If the release of capital funds is not approved, the Chrysalis
2023/24 programme cannot be effectively and efficiently
progressed as planned and the Chrysalis contribution towards
delivery of the Council Strategy 2022/2026 may not be achieved.
