QUESTION NO. 1

QUESTION: Councillor W. Lavelle

"To ask the Chief Executive to outline the next steps and timelines involved in delivery of the planned All-Weather Facility at Airlie Heights, in conjunction with Lucan United FC?"

REPLY:

At the request of the Chair of the Lucan Area Committee, a recent meeting with the Lucan Area Councillors and the Director of Environment Water and Climate Change and the Director of Housing, Social and Community Development was convened to discuss the issues involved in the project plans for the new all-weather pitch at Airlie Heights.

It was agreed that, in order to progress this project, and in the best interests of all concerned, that representatives from Lucan United FC and the Local Residents Groups should meet. It is understood that such an offer exists from the Club.

The Council outlined fully its understanding and position in relation to the Capital Sports Grant award following the An Bord Pleanála decision on the planning application and appeal, and how the Council intends to proceed to advance the project."
