COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS
SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL
MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE
Tuesday, June 25, 2013
QUESTION NO. 15
QUESTION: Councillor C. Jones
"To ask the Manager to state the latest position regarding Foxford Court?"
REPLY:
Following last update to Council, more detailed investigations have taken place on the issue of fire compartmentation works required on external walls and the Council-owned dwellings (3) were investigated in considerable detail internally.
The results of the external examinations were encouraging, showing the external compartmentation problem was not as significant as originally feared.
Based on these investigations, tenders issued on 13th June 2013 to 4 contractors familiar with refurbishment works where tenants/owners remain in-situ during the works. 3 specialist fire separation contractors were also tendered for particular compartmentation and separation works.
Tenders are due to be returned on the 28th June 2013 and a tender report will be prepared next week to evaluate the final cost of the works required.
