£1.1 million has been approved to upgrade Chichester District Council car parks and properties.
At a meeting on Tuesday (July 8), the cabinet agreed to draw the cash from the Asset Replacement Programme, topped up with an extra £114,000 from the general reserve, to fund the improvement works.
It will be used to: replace street lighting in car parks and along city streets; carry out structural work and lighting upgrades at Avenue de Chartres Car Park; and carry out repairs and relining in the car parks at East Pallant/Crawley Priory, St Cyriacs, Northgate, and Post Office, Midhurst.
On top of that, essential works will be carried out at East Pallant House, such as partial re-roofing, replacing light lanterns, air con units and the electricity distribution board.
Work at the Novium Museum will include flooring replacement, work to the ceiling, roof and fire alarm, and replacement lighting.
Cabinet members also recommended that more than £665,000 be taken from the general reserve to pay for repair and maintenance work on some of the most valuable assets.
The work includes £100,000 for work on the City Walls, £255,000 for the Guildhall, £10,000 for the East Marden Well, and £200,000 for The Old Bakery, in Petworth.
The final say on whether or not to use the money will fall to the full council on Wednesday (July 16).
Work will be carried out in phases, with the first expected to start in early 2026.
