Purpose

Sport England have granted Crawley Borough
Council funding from the Exchequer through the Swimming Pool
Support Fund Phase II with a requirement for a restriction on title
for K2 Crawley to be placed.

This funding award is for the installation of additional
photovoltaic panels and installation of LED lighting within the
facility. The award is in part due to the significant increase in
utility costs over the past eighteen months which has greatly
affected the provision of swimming pool facilities nationwide. The
scheme also fits in with Crawley Borough Council's Climate
Emergency Action Plan and feed into the wider decarbonisation
project which has recently commenced.

Content

Place the restriction on the title for K2 Crawley
to enable the funding to be released and move the decarbonisation
projects forward.

Alternative options considered

Not placing the restriction on title would go
against the funding agreement from Sport England and therefore
Crawley Borough council would not receive the funding.
