SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE (2)

Monday, February 22, 2010

QUESTION NO. 7

QUESTION: Councillor S. Crowe

"Can the Manager, in view of the demand, outline how many plots are vacant at present in the Bohernabreena allotments and if there is any proposals to sub-divide some of the larger plots (in the 40s) if they become vacant?"

REPLY:

All the plots in Friarstown Allotment Facility have been offered to plot holders for the 2010 season.  Only four people didn’t renew their licence and these four plots are being offered to the people next line on the waiting list for Friarstown.  There are currently 282 on the waiting list for the Friarstown Allotments.

The Council has examined the potential to extend the current Allotment Scheme throughout the County, and it has been agreed to extend the allotment facility at Friarstown, Bohernahreena.  This extension of Friarstown is currently being examined and it is expected works will proceed in the near future.
