MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

MOTION NO. 15

MOTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

"That the Chief Executive consider leasing council owned buildings on the Newcastle road to sports clubs on a medium term lease."

REPORT:

The subject buildings are on the site of the former Univar complex. This site forms part of the identified route for the Adamstown Road(R120) Road Improvement Scheme which is the subject of an ongoing CPO process. Untill such time as the CPO process is completed and the Council is satisfied that it will not have a requirement to use the site to facilitate road works, it is premature to consider a lease arrangement for use of the site by others. 

The Council has facilitated controlled temporary uses of the site by local based sports clubs in respect of specified use and will continue to consider such requests on a case by case basis in tandem with the roll out of the identified road works.
