MEETING OF CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Wednesday, May 18, 2016

QUESTION NO.5

QUESTION: Councillor M. Ward

"To ask the Chief Executive to provide an update on the plans for the future development of the Corkagh Park fishing lakes."

REPLY:

BK Golf management Ltd has been managing the Fishery since April 2013 in line with the Camac Valley Licence Agreement at the requirement of South Dublin County Council pending the outcome of a tender process specific to the Fishery operation.

A management concession for the facility was tendered in November 2013 but the process was unsuccessful as no tenders were received.

Since then the Council has considered options for management of the facility and is now preparing to re-issue a tender for the management and operation of the facility with a particular focus on community linkages, and previous experience in managing Community based fishing facilities or other similar facilities on a not for profit basis.
