MEETING OF SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

Monday, October 13, 2014

MOTION NO. 4

MOTION: Councillor W. Lavelle

That this Council calls on the Chief Executive to prepare proposals, to be funded out of the capital budget and to be included in the next Rolling Capital Programme, for a modest and affordable construction programme to provide new pavilions in a small number of key parks throughout the County, for the purposes of replacing temporary containers in these parks and providing purpose-built changing facilities and meeting rooms for use by smaller sports clubs.

REPORT:

A comprehensive County wide needs assessment review of community facilities and spaces will be carried out before the end of 2014. We are favourably disposed to the concept of shared pavilion spaces for a range of clubs and different sports. However we will not be in a position to prepare such a proposal until the needs assessment exercise has been completed. Preliminary work on this exercise has commenced.
