MOTION NO. 21

MOTION: Councillor E. Tuffy

That the Area Committee, noting that, as advised in the Reply to my Question 8 at the January 2011 Area Committee Meeting, the Manager intends to convene a special Information Evening before the commencement of the Part 8 Process for the proposed Park's Depot in Griffeen Valley Park, is of the view that the Information Evening should be open to any member of the public, including residents of estates in and around Griffeen Valley Park, and parents of Esker Educate Together NS  pupils and prospective pupils, and other parents, but that the focus of the meeting should be on the Council's intentions in regard to a replacement Park's Depot for Lucan, the options considered by the Council and the case for selecting a specific site for the Part 8 proposal. 

REPORT:

Since the last report was presented to the Lucan Area Committee Meeting in January, the drafting of the detailed plans and drawings for the Part 8 process has continued.  Prior to the commencement of the consultation period it is proposed to hold an information meeting on the proposed depot and the proposed school.  Details of the information meeting will be finalised once drawings have been completed and a date agreed with the Department of Education and Skills.
