2017 Improvement Works Programme
Provision has been made by the Chief Executive in the 2017 budget for the carrying out of small improvement works in parks and open space areas around the County such as the laying of new paths, pitch improvement works, installation of lighting on open spaces, roundabout improvements and other works. Those works proposed to take place in the Tallaght area in 2017 are listed below. These proposals have been compiled from issues raised as agenda items at area committee meetings throughout the course of the year, as well as undertakings given in response to members representations throughout the year. It should be noted that the list provided does not include those works which have already been included in the Council's three year rolling capital works programme, it includes only those works of a small scale which are to be funded from the revenue budget.
