recommended to Full Council funding for Renovation of 49c Theobald
Street for up to £629,138 as recommended by the Community
Infrastructure Levy Panel (CILIP) on the 18th November 2025 subject
to:
I. Satisfactory information
regarding the leasehold arrangements being provided,
and;
II. The CIL Funding Legal
Agreement being signed.
 
1.2) that the Cabinet
recommended to Full Council funding for the Hertsmere Learning
Partnership of up to £1,640,000 as recommended by the
Community Infrastructure Levy Panel (CILIP) on the 10th February
2026 subject to:
 
I. The CIL Funding Legal
Agreement being signed.
 
1.3) that the Cabinet
recommended to Full Council funding for Aberford Park Improvements
of up to £1,980,000 as recommended by the Community
Infrastructure Levy Panel (CILIP) on the 10th February
2026;
 
1.4) that the Cabinet
approved the CILIP recommendation on November 18th 2025 that
£99,500 be agreed to fund the Academy Classroom/Multi Use
Facility at Potters Bar Football Club;
 
1.5) that the Cabinet
approved the CILIP recommendation on February 10th 2026 that
£30,000 be agreed from Potters Bar NCIL to fund the Elm Court
Youth and Community Centre Kitchen Improvements.
 
Reasons for
decision
 
The projects set out above have been
recommended for approval by the CILIP, three of these bids are over
£100,000 and therefore require a decision by full Council in
order to receive the funding.
 
Alternative Options
Considered
 
The Council could have asked for the bid amount
to be reduced in order to lower the costs, or alternatively the
Council could ask for the bid to be re-submitted once additional
funding has been sought, both of these options would have potential
implications to the timeline and delivery of the
projects.
4.2
The Council could choose not
to agree a bid and forego any of the associated benefits that are
connected to the project.
