MEETING OF RATHFARNHAM/TEMPLEOGUE/FIRHOUSE/BOHERNABREENA AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, January 12, 2021

HEADED ITEM NO. 13

HEADED ITEM: P. Realm

Draft Public Realm Improvement Works Programme 2021

REPLY:

The following is the list of improvement works proposed for the Rathfarnham/Templeogue/Firhouse/Bohernabreena area for 2021.  These proposals have been compiled from issues raised as agenda items at area committee meetings throughout the course of 2020, undertakings given in response to members representations throughout the year as well as works that have been identified by staff.  It should be noted that the list provided does not include those works which have already been included in the Council's three year rolling capital works programme, it includes only those works of a small scale which are to be funded from the revenue budget.  

This list of schemes, along with lists of schemes for the other electoral areas, will be presented to the meeting of the County Council in February 2021 for the approval of the elected members. The new Covid 19 restrictions which came into place recently allow only work of an essential nature to take place and in these circumstances it will only be possible to commence work on the schemes listed below after those Covid restrictions have been lifted, and subject to the programme of works being approved by the Council.
