QUESTION NO. 5

QUESTION: Councillor Carly Bailey

To ask the Chief Executive if further investigations will take place in relation to drainage at the playspace at Templeville Road? This is asked in light of significant flooding which has rendered the facility unusable for the last week or so. If not, can the CE confirm that this is indeed a one-off due to the significant rain levels experienced over the past few weeks?

REPLY:

Drainage works were carried out by a contractor engaged by the Public Realm Section earlier this year at the Glendown playspace.  It is understood that these works have resolved the drainage problem referred to here, however the playspace will be monitored on an ongoing basis to ensure that no further problems of this nature arise.
