MEETING OF LUCAN/PALMERSTON/NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

QUESTION NO. 9

QUESTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

To ask the Chief Executive for an update on the Multi Wall ball Teen space on Newcastle road, and advise if there are plans to introduce additional teen spaces in the area.

REPLY:

The ball wall is substantially complete and proving to be a very popular provision in the area. As basketball seems to be highly popular within the space the Council has proposed additional teenage-related facilities at the ball wall location; including provision of basketball as a separate provision within this area as part of delivery of phase 2 of the teenspace programme. This will allow the ball wall to be simultaneously used for other sports and maximise the use of the facility. 

Consultants for the Phase 1 teenspace are progressing with the design development for the facility.
