MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

Thursday, June 23, 2016

MOTION NO. 6

MOTION: Councillor V. Casserly

"That this Area Committee requests the Chief Executive to engage with the FAI Football for All programme and with Esker Celtic FC with a view to progressing proposals to situate a dedicated frame football facility at Hermitage Park, including agreeing an approach to progressing any necessary planning processes and identifying a funding source."

REPORT:

"At a recent meeting with Esker Celtic FC to discuss a number of issues it was agreed:

to consider the provision of a secure outdoor facility for the storage of football related equipment and that would allow the equipment to be easily accessed without having to transport it each time that it was required for games
to consider a proposal by the club for a synthetic surfaced area that would facilitate its use for the Football for All FAI programme

Further progress on these items will be dependent on the provision of the financial resources being available and the Council will work proactively with the Club to ensure that progress is made on them."
