MOTION NO. 7

MOTION: Councillor V. Casserly

To call on the manager to commence pitch improvement works in Griffeen Park 2 due to the following issues: * due to overuse, pitch areas are bald * levelling works are required on pitch

REPORT:

The pitch in question has been examined and a contractor who specialises in pitch maintenance works has been engaged to carry out repairs. The work includes the replacement of approximately 40 square meters of turf in an area which has suffered damage. The ground conditions are currently too dry which is preventing the works from starting. The works cannot commence until rainfall levels increase as it would not be possible to ensure the survival of the turf in the absence of rainfall. As soon as the weather is considered suitable and the contractor is available, the work will be carried out.
