MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

MOTION NO. 2

MOTION: Councillor M. Genockey

"That this Committee calls on the Chief Executive to arrange for work to be carried out to preserve and display the old reservoir wall on the Slade Road across from the Drury Mills estate in Saggart."

REPORT:

"The existing aqueducts and old reservoir wall which are located on Slade Road are in a derelict ruinous condition and are inaccessible. The site has limited amenity value and no longer functions. This feature was deleted from the Record of Protected Structures under the County Development Review (2010-2016) when an independent assessment of South Dublin County Councils Record of Protected Structures (RPS) was reviewed. It was recommended that the feature be removed from the RPS during the Development Plan Review as it was considered that the site was no longer worthy of continued protected.

The existing feature and site is not a protected structure therefore do not come under the legislative protection of Part IV of the Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended). The current structure and site is in private ownership therefore andtherefore any works would be a matter for the owner.   The Council has no plan or resources to carry out any works."
