QUESTION NO.8

QUESTION: Councillor K. Mahon

"To ask the Chief Executive for an update regarding the attached motion (44306) passed at  May's Tallaght Area Committee Meeting. What is the general time frame for such reports?"

44306 Councillor K. Mahon Tallaght Area Committee Tallaght Area Committee Meeting 25th May 2015 Motions 21/04/2015

That this area committee calls for a report on the suitability of the green field bordered by Homelawns Villas and the Seskin View Rd and to the rear of The Crescent Millbrook Lawns and Homelawns Rd for use as allotments or a community garden.

This would enable the productive use of a strip of land that is generally unused with limited potential due to its narrowness and proximity to existing back gardens.

REPLY:

The report at the May Tallaght ACM made reference to the proposed Allotments Strategy and that this proposal for allotments/community garden in this area between Homelawn Villas would be considered as part of that strategy. It has not been possible to complete the work on this strategy to date. However, when a draft document is finalised it will be presented to the Elected Members for consideration. This location will be included for consideration in the strategy.
