MEETING OF CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

QUESTION NO. 24

QUESTION: Councillor M. McDonagh

To ask the Manager to provide an update on developments since the last Area Committee Meeting on ongoing efforts to resolve the issue of the two derelict houses at Nos. 2 and 4 Lealand Walk?

REPLY:

The Circuit Court granted an order for possession of the Council rented dwelling at 4 Lealand Walk late last year, but the order has since been challenged.  In this circumstance the County Solicitor has now advised that the case is likely to go to a full Oral Hearing of the Circuit Court and the case is now listed for hearing on 25 April 2012 in the Circuit Court.

2 Lealand Walk has been declared a derelict site by the Council, under the terms of Section 3 of the Derelict Sites Act, 1990.  Legal Advice has been sought with regards to the Vesting of this property and this advice is awaited at present.
