QUESTION NO. 3

QUESTION: Councillor E. Ó Broin

"To ask the Chief Executive to provide an update on the taking in charge of Monastery Heath and on the legal issues related to the ownership of Mount St Joseph's graveyard?"

REPLY:

A meeting was held with the Developer of Monastery Heath Estate on the 18th December 2015. It was agreed that in advance of an application for the Taking in Charge of the open space that an updated tree survey would be undertaken and that some tree surgery work would then be commenced if necessary. The Developer is to also provide the required documents for the Council to process a Taking in Charge request.

There was some discussion on the graveyard and the Council agreed to revert to the Developer on this and having considered the relevant condition in the Planning Permission that relates to the Graveyard in particular.
