MOTION NO. 1

MOTION: Councillor E. Murphy

Can the Council please provide details on the status of each project in the 300K Have Your Say programme for the Firhouse Bohernabreena LEA?

REPORT:

In relation to the five projects funded for the Firhouse - Bohernabreena electoral area through €300k Have Your Say (HYS), the Council can give the following updates.

Project	Update
Intergenerational Outdoor Activity Spaces in Glenasmole	Works have begun on the multi use games area as part of the HYS funding. Further works are being carried out on site that are funded through a different stream (LEADER) but a plan has been agreed with the community for works to begin on the remaining HYS funded areas once the current works are complete.
Nature Trail along the river Dodder	This project has been completed and signage has been installed. Unfortunately some vandalism has occurred to some of the signage but arrangements have been made for alternative signage to be installed imminently.
Playground Facilities at Ballycragh Park	Works have begun on site but no completion date has been set yet.
Health and Wellbeing Garden in Firhouse Community Centre	This project is currently on hold due to the community centre reassessing planning adjacent to the proposed garden in the centre. Updated timelines are being prepared and will be brought to area committee once they are set.
Native Tree Trail in Woodlawn Park	Planting is due to be complete in quarter four of this year having begun in early-October.
