Motion Puppy Park Public Realm
This committee asks that the Chief Executive reconsiders the proposals which I brought to the Lucan committee in 2017, (see motion below). While its noted that the PR are not in favour of introducing such a facility, upon feedback, queries, requests from many park users a 'puppy park' separate to the existing one would be very favourable by many dog owners of all ages. If anything the last couple of months has shown us how our parks and public amenities have and can continued to be used. This committee requests a report on how a facility could be introduced into the park, whats costs and considerations are involved.
MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE
Tuesday, November 28, 2017
MOTION NO. 17
MOTION: Councillor L. O'Toole
"That this Area Committee requests that the Chief Executive examine the possibility of designing a ‘puppy pound’ at Griffeen Dog Park which would assist those with new dogs and provide training in a safe and controlled environment."
REPORT:
“As previously reported under Motion 4 at the Lucan ACM in September 2016, the Public Realm Section is not in favour of introducing a "puppy pound". This type of facility would be difficult to manage in the absence of a system to police it.
The most appropriate course of action in this instance would be for dog owners to introduce their puppies to dog runs when they consider that they are ready for this experience. Puppy social skills and interaction with other dogs can be achieved through puppy training classes which all responsible dog owners should be encouraged to attend."
That the Chief Executive provides an update on parking provision and traffic management within the SDZ, including a map indicating which roads are taken in charge and subject to Garda traffic enforcement.

That the Chief Executive reports on the current progress for the ball wall and teen space area off the Newcastle Road, including the reinstatement of the grass area for ball games and considers re-orientating the basketball area lengthways into the tarmac area so that the ball wall can be used for tennis, hurling or football at the same time as basketball is being played, which would provide for a more efficient use of the area.
