MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, March 26, 2018

QUESTION NO. 3

QUESTION: Councillor Emma Hendrick

"To ask the Chief Executive if a meeting has been called with the residents of Brookfield to form a new Board of Directors for Brookfield Youth and Community Centre to ensure it's return to business.  If this hasn’t yet happened, when will it happen?"

REPLY:

"The Brookfield Youth & Community Centre was managed under licence by Brookfield Youth and Community Centre Ltd.  This independent company has ceased trading and there is no formal management structure currently in place.  The temporary operation of the Centre is being managed by the Community Services team in partnership with the DDLETB and Fóroige.

Consideration is now being given to identify the most suitable model to facilitate the establishment of a new company. When this process has been completed, an invitation will be given to interested parties to engage. Every effort will continue to be made to re-establish a suitable entity to meet the needs of the Brookfield community."
