QUESTION NO.13

QUESTION: Councillor W. Lavelle

To ask the Manager to provide a detailed update on implementation to date of all projects proposed under the Public Realm Transformation Initiative?

REPLY:

Over two budget periods the Council agreed to set aside funds which would be used to develop projects which would permanently remove expenditure from the revenue budget and to therefore replace on-going maintenance costs with a once off capital type cost.  While a large number of areas were identified as needing attention it was agreed that the proposals would be prioritised on the basis of their ability to impact an area.  As the funds were to track expenditure the amount available, in the first instance was €600,000 with an on-going review.  The top six priorities are set out below:-
