MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, January 24, 2017

QUESTION NO. 13

QUESTION: Councillor R. Nolan

"To ask the Chief Executive for an update on The Lucan Swimming Pool please?"

REPLY:

A design team has been appointed by South Dublin County Council following approval of this stage of the process by the Department of Transport Sport and Tourism.  This design team are currently working on a feasability study and design for the pool layout. The design will also require approval of the Department before proceeding.

The Part 8 process including public consultation is still anticipated to start in the first quarter of 2017.  It was hoped to have a briefing meeting with  the Lucan Pool Group and Councillors before Christmas however the design team are still familiarising themselves with their brief including the site, its restrictions, cost etc.  This will now take place following submissions of first drafts from them.
