MOTION NO. 79
MOTION: Councillor E. O'Brien, Councillor Shane Moynihan
That this Council reaffirms its commitment to the protection of the Liffey Valley and directs the Chief Executive where possible to designate lands within the area as publicly owned parkland and to make efforts to acquire lands which could be incorporated into such parkland.
REPORT:
Motions Item ID 70838 and 71106 seek to amend Policy NCBH Objective 6 to delete the word ‘consider’ and replace it with ‘actively pursue’ such that the objective reads:
‘Consider Actively pursue the extension of public owned lands, either by direct purchase or land swap within and adjacent to the Liffey Valley Special Amenity Area to create a linked series of park land and open spaces’ and the recommendations are for the motions to be adopted.
The intent of this motion is similar and it is considered that can be dealt with by the amendment proposed to NCBH Objective 6.
The motion is considered acceptable.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the motion is adopted as follows:
Policy NCBH Objective 6: Actively pursue the extension of public owned lands, either by direct purchase or land swap within and adjacent to the Liffey Valley Special Amenity Area to create a linked series of park land and open spaces’ and the recommendations are for the motions to be adopted
