MEETING OF TERENURE/RATHFARNHAM AREA COMMITTEE (2)

Tuesday, November 13, 2007

QUESTION NO. 10

QUESTION: Councillor E. Walsh

"To ask the Manager could the pond in Tymon North Park be examined as residents have advised me that the water appears stagnent and will he make a statement on the issue?"

REPLY:

The recent dry spell of weather has caused a temporary reduction in the flow of water through the pond system at Tymon Park near to the Tymon North entrance resulting in some stagnation of the water. However, it is anticipated that precipitation levels and resultant ground water flow rates will increase over the winter period and will rectify the problem in a natural manner. The situation is being monitored.
