QUESTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

To ask the Chief Executive to report on the Sports facilities audit which was due to be carried out at the beginning of the year.

REPLY: 

A working group made up of representatives of different departments have developed a Community Facilities Map.   Following a community consultation process the Community GIS was soft launched in April and is now publicly accessible on the Council website: http://sdublincoco.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=4d79220add374011babea9002d015ab7

This shows community centres, neighbourhood facilities, sports facilities including pitches and playgrounds which are managed or supported by South Dublin County Council.  Details are also provided of other facilities in the county which provide facilities and services which are available within communities such as schools, health centres etc.  This project is still a work in progress, consultation and feedback is ongoing and welcome.

It is anticipated that a formal launch of the project will be held later this year)
