QUESTION NO. 10

QUESTION: Councillor Joanna Tuffy

To the ask Chief Executive Officer if there has been an estimate of the amount it would cost to adapt the Heritage App for Clondalkin to Lucan and other towns in the County

REPLY:

As part of the National Tender for the Heritage App for Clondalkin village, which was funded by the 2018 Participatory Budgeting Initiative, tenderers were required to make the App expandable to include additional villages, languages, and new features to enhance the application with all the costing related to the expansion provided for Clondalkin. Accordingly, there is the potential to develop a Heritage Trail App for other villages within South Dublin County, should the Clondalkin Heritage Trail be successful, and subject to funding approval.

It is estimated that it would cost in the region of €10,000 for an app and two additional languages over and above English and Irish, for each village.
