Motion Ice Rink Community This committee requests that the Chief Executive considers the following proposal made by residents of lucan to bring an ice rink to the area. This would be an asset to the county, all the information below provides additional reasons for this proposal. I'm new to the Adamstown area and have purchased my first home here. I wanted to reach out to you about one topic that is close to my heart and that's ice skating, or specifically an Ice Rink. I notice there are no permanent ice rinks at all in the Republic of Ireland, with the last one closing in Dundalk in 2011. There were plans as recently as 2016 to construct an ice arena as part of Phase 2 of the Liffey Valley development but this was removed from the plan due to the concerns raised by the council on car parking. Are there plans, or would there be a willingness by the council to entertain such a development in the region? I can see the IIHA (Irish Ice Hockey Association) are raising seed capital and have interest from German investors to construct such a facility but are having issues securing a site. I think an ice arena to the South Dublin area would be a massive development opportunity. For the area to have the only ice rink in the Republic of Ireland would really highlight the livability and opportunity in the region and only increase the attractiveness of the area to newcomers like myself. If you know anything on this matter on the council level I would love to hear about it or indeed if there was an opportunity to bring it up at a council meeting in the future I would be most appreciative.
