MEETING OF RATHFARNHAM/TEMPLEOGUE-TERENURE AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, May 09, 2017

MOTION NO. 5

MOTION: Councillor D. Looney

"That this Committee receives a full update on the progress of all proposed playspaces planned or delivered in the area under its remit for 2016 and 2017."

Playground Construction Programme Update – Rathfarnham Templeogue Terenure

Since the last update in November 2016 playspaces have been completed and opened in the county in the following locations:

Tallaght Central

Kingswood Open Space

Kilnamanagh

Sean Walsh Park

Tymon Park North refurbishment

Rathfarnham Templeogue Terenure

Glendoher Park

All of these playspaces have been very successful and are well used. We have been asked to erect the byelaws in Glendoher Park, which we have agreed to do and we have a few minor items to complete there.

2017 Programme - Rathfarnham Templeogue Terenure

It is proposed to proceed with the following programme in 2017 – the completion of the programme is dependent on the consultation time in particular and when the consultation is completed and hopefully with local agreement the tendering process will commence. Therefore the actual construction work is unlikely to take place until late 2017 and mostly in 2018. Preliminary consultation in some cases indicates that amalgamation at some locations may be favourable but each location will be assessed on a case by case basis and in consultation with the local community there:

RATHFARNHAM / TEMPLEOGUE / TERENURE

2018

The consultation on the 2018 programme is dependent on the progress with the 2017 consultation and tendering process.
