Hackney Council is set to refurbish the basketball courts and Multi Use Games Area (MUGA) at Hackney Downs Park, allocating £105,000 for the project in 2025/26. The decision was made to ensure the delivery of schemes within the council’s approved Capital programme.
The refurbishment, planned for 2025/26, aims to upgrade the existing facilities, providing improved recreational opportunities for residents. The council approved the Hackney Downs Park Basketball Courts and Multi Use Games Area (MUGA) refurbishment, allocating £105,000 in resources for the project.
The decision was made during a meeting of the Hackney Council's Licensing Sub Committee C on 12 August 2025, where councillors approved several key resolutions concerning capital projects.
The council delegated authority to the Group Director of Finance to agree on commercial terms for the transactions, and to the Director of Legal, Democratic and Electoral Services to finalise the necessary documentation. The full minutes of the meeting are available online.
