MEETING OF RATHFARNHAM/TEMPLEOGUE-TERENURE AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, April 09, 2019

MOTION NO.13

MOTION: Councillor Rob Russell

"That this Area Committe asks the Chief Executive to look at the possibility of installing juvenile GAA goalposts on the green area adjacent to Firhouse community centre at Ballycullen Drive/Killakee park."

REPORT:

There is no provision for juvenile GAA goalposts at this location in the current Pitch Maintenance Programme, however the public open space at this location is available to all members of the public to use for passive recreation.

The Council is committed to maintaining and improving our parks and recreational facilities to enhance the quality of life for the residents of South Dublin. A key element of this objective is to develop a Sports Pitch Strategy with regard to the provision, allocation and management of playing pitches throughout the County and 4Global Consultants have been engaged by South Dublin County Council to develop this Strategy. Future Pitch Maintenance Programmes will be developed in the context of this Strategy.
