MOTION: Councillor S. Holland

Community Infrastructure Policy 9 - Primary & post-primary facilities

To undertake a review of local sports clubs and determine whether shared specialist facilities can be developed for use by local clubs in conjunction with the schools - boxing,tennis and cricket are all widely played and yet there is a dearth of facilities across the county

REPORT:

Some preliminary work has already been carried out by the council’s Community Department on this matter in conjunction with Public Realm.   This work will continue over the life time of the Plan.

It is an objective of the plan to carry out an assessment of community floorspace needs in South Dublin County (CI1 – 1) and to promote and support schemes that facilitate the shared use of school facilities, such as sports halls and ball courts for community use outside of school hours (CI9 – 7).

Recommendation

It is recommended that this motion is adopted
