The request to have goal posts removed and have new system put in place has been requested by local soccer club (see emailed attached). The members request the CE to consider this request and advise how it can be accommodated. Reasons for this are outlined in the email. I hope you can help or guide the club with the following request please. Esker Celtic are kindly requesting the removal of the static goal posts in Willsbrook Park, Lucan, Co.Dublin along with the 40foot container. The pitch is not in usable condition particularly around the goal mouth (photos attached) and has been like this for a number of years. On many occasions before we do use it we have to clear broken glass from that area as the posts are used as a target to break bottles. The container itself is rusting and full of holes and in my opinion is beyond repair. It has become a magnet for people to use as a bathroom to relive themselves(behind it)and we have to on a weekly basis clean it up as the smell is disgusting. It is of no use to our club and has become an eyesore in such a beautiful area. We would be grateful if the Council would consider this request and replace the container with a fenced compound that would house two full size portable goal posts(which the club will provide).
This committee commends the planners to date in regards to the new parks opened/opening within the Adamstown area of Lucan. There have been queries into designing a skate park into the new parks due to be built. The members ask the CE supports the examination of introducing this amenity and advises of its possibilities
