MEETING OF DEVELOPMENT PLAN MEETING

MOTION NO. 153

MOTION: Councillor P. Donovan

Section Community Infrastructure (CI) Policy 12 Open Space

That the manager considers adding a specific Objective to formulate a strategy across the county for the roll out of Community Gardens which would include an ongoing investment plan for our current very successful Community Gardens.  

REPORT:

Some preliminary work has already been carried out on this matter in conjunction with Public Realm.

The provision of additional facilities will require the availability of the necessary finances

Section 48 contributions will not finance all required facilities so financial assistance from national resources is essential.

Recommendation

It is recommended that this motion is not adopted
