Tuesday, April 22, 2014
QUESTION NO. 16
QUESTION: Councillor W. Lavelle
"To ask the Manager for an update on any response from Mr. Paul McCann of Grant Thornton to the request to replace the unsightly boundary fencing between Dodsboro Cottages/Tandys Lane and the unfinished development land south of The Paddocks?"
REPLY:
A formal response to the Council's letter of 11th March was received on 16th April as follows:-
'The Receiver takes his responsibilities for the health and safety and upkeep of the former Maplewood Development lands extremely seriously, and will continue to maintain all boundaries in relation to the Adamstown lands in line with obligations. Unfortunately the Receiver does not have the resources or legal mandate to make additional, appearance related, boundary amendments'
The correspondence also notes that since his appointment the Receiver has liaised on an ongoing basis with residents and local councillors facilitating meetings on site in February and August of 2013.
