QUESTION NO.  3

QUESTION: Councillor Eoin Ó Broin

"To ask the Chief Executive for an update on the implementation of the various phases of the €5 million development of Corkagh Park, presented at the December 2019 County Council by the consultancy firm Tyréns?"

REPLY:

South Dublin County Council went out to public tender in November 2020 for Landscape Architecture and Public Realm design led multi-disciplinary consultant services for progression of the initial phases of the Corkagh Park Masterplan Delivery Plan 2020 to planning approval and construction stage.  Due to the Christmas period and Covid restrictions the closing date of the tender, at the request of tenderers, was extended to 5th February 2021.  At the closing date three tender submissions were received.  The submissions received, in the first instance, will need to be assessed to ensure they met the suitability assessment criteria as laid out in the tender requirements.  Tenders deemed to have met the suitability assessment criteria will be assessed by a tender assessment panel based on criteria as set out in the tender documents.  It is anticipated that this process will be concluded by the end of Q1 2021.
