  • Whereas tennis has been growing in popularity in Richmond Hill over the past number of years.

    Whereas with this growing popularity there has been a commensurate demand for tennis courts and especially courts with higher quality playing surfaces.

    Whereas there are no courts with this higher quality surface in the central area of Ward 4.

    Whereas Council has recently been presented with a petition from a group of tennis enthusiasts in this area requesting that the courts at French Royalist Park be upgraded in 2020.

    Therefore be it resolved that staff investigate the cost and feasibility of upgrading these courts, including the ability to receive and apply a colour coated surface, with the goal of adding this project to the 2020 Capital Budget so that the tennis courts at French Royalist Park may be upgraded within 2020.
