MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, September 23, 2019

QUESTION NO. 3

QUESTION: Councillor M. Duff

"To ask the Chief Executive to make a report regarding the construction of the new Castletymon Library and indicate if there are any undue delays to the construction of the Library and to confirm that the current Contractor is sufficiently committed to completing the Project?"

REPLY:

"The construction of Castletymon Library is running two months behind programme. A portion of this delay is attributable to vandalism that occurred on site in July 2019. The arson attack on site caused considerable damage to the contractor's equipment and facilities on site. The Council is collaborating with the contractor to reorder the site and regain momentum on the construction programme."
