That this Committee reaffirms it’s absolute commitment to securing delivery of a much-needed and long-awaited swimming pool for Lucan, in particular noting that that the population of Lucan (excluding areas in Fingal) now stands at 44,503, a 23% increase since 2006 and that since 1996 the population of Lucan-Esker has increased by 300%; requests the Manager to reassess the previously-prepared plans for a pool, to be located at Griffeen Valley Park, with a view to presenting re-costed and realistic plans for a swimming pool and leisure centre for Lucan.
That in view of the fact that Section 49 Development Levies have been and continue to be collected in respect of the Kildare Route Project, and having regard to the potential demand from residents in parts of Lucan close to Kishogue Station, such as Foxborough, Esker, Riada Estates along Griffeen Avenue, this Committee requests the Manager to write to Irish Rail calling for the opening of the station at the earliest date, and certainly in 2012.
That this Committee request the Manager to examine and report on the feasibility of removing the stretch of boundary wall and hedging at the very south of the open space at Foxborough Road and extending this open space to incorporate the strip on leftover land between the wall which to be removed, the boundary wall to Thomas Omer Way and the boundary to the entrance road to the Carline Centre. Removal of this stretch of wall and the opening-up of this area would be of significant benefit in removing a secluded anti-social blackspot.
That this Committee commends the recent work done in Foxborough to assist the residents in cleaning and removing graffiti from a problematic area and now asks the Manager for a report on longer term measures to prevent the recurrence of the problems.
That the Lucan Area Committee notes that the “Meet Your Politicians” event held in County Hall on 27th September as part of Active Citizenship Week, was well attended by representatives of community organisations and individuals from many parts of the County, especially the Clondalkin and Tallaght Central and South Electoral Areas, and that participants, including councillors, engaged in forthright and interesting exchanges on a wide range of issues and problems, about which residents look to the Council and councillors for actions and measures. The Committee notes however, that the attendance from the Lucan Electoral Area was disappointingly low: 2 residents, both from Palmerstown, 1 community worker and 3 councillors. The Committee therefore requests the Manager, in collaboration with the CPLN Partnership, to organise a similar “ Meet the Politicians/Councillors” event for a date in January 2012 to be held in the Lucan Electoral Area, e.g. in Ballyowen Castle Community Centre, and to promote appropriately amongst community organisations and the public.
