New outdoor recreational facilities in Horley

Section 106 (S106) developer contributions have been secured for a Town Park. These contributions can be used for site acquisition, capital costs of laying out a park and revenue costs for maintenance. The terms of the S106s provide flexibility for the Council in how the park is delivered and it can be provided within a six-mile radius of Horley town centre.

An assessment of various sites for new outdoor reacreational facilities in Horley is being carried out and the options will be consulted on during 2024.View of path, fencing, grass and tress in the Riverside green chain
