QUESTION NO. 3

QUESTION: Councillor Yvonne Collins

To ask the Chief Executive for an update as to when the proposed water fountains will be introduced in Rathfarnham Castle and the playground in Tymon Park, given the importance of encouraging the use of reusable flasks and bottles instead of single use plastics, and supporting our health and wellbeing

 

REPLY:

The Council's Public Realm Section has installed the first of eight public drinking water fountains at the Civic Offices in Tallaght.  The next two fountains are due to be installed during the week ending October 11th, at Rathcoole Village and Griffeen Valley Park.  It is expected that the remaing five units will be installed before the end of October, with the programme of installation completed by early November at the latest.
