QUESTION NO.24

QUESTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

To ask the Chief Executive to provide a list of brown field sites in our county which are owned by the council

REPLY:

Brownfield sites, which are defined as “any land which has been subjected to building, engineering or other operations, excluding temporary uses or urban green spaces”, generally comprise redundant industrial lands or docks but may also include former barracks, hospitals or even occasionally, obsolete housing areas. 

The council has very limited Brownfield lands and would generally be areas acquired/reserved for potential road development or road improvement projects. A full report can be incorprated in the next property report to the O & P & F as outlined in previous reports/replies to Council members.
