SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, January 22, 2013

QUESTION NO.18

QUESTION: Councillor E. Tuffy

"To ask the Manager for a further update on the taking-in-charge of the grass verge area along the left hand side of the road leading from the Griffeen Avenue Roundabout to the entrances to Hayden's Park, Rossberry and Tullyhall Estates in Lucan?"

REPLY:

In the case of Rossberry/Tullyhall the Council is still awaiting some of the required documentation, has been in correspondence with the respective developer representatives and has stressed the need for these matters to be addressed as a matter of urgency.  In order to expedite this process the Council has also recently (January 2013) made contact with the receiver for the Developer firm.

In relation to a date for the completion of the transfer of the lands to the Council the sooner that all of the required documentation has been supplied by the developer representatives the sooner the matter can be brought to a conclusion.  However, it should be stressed that even when all of the documentation has been received there is often a long time period in which the processing of the material takes place and this process involves, inter alia, legal and land registry processing.  The Council has been proactive in following up with the respective developers and will continue to do so.
