MEETING OF RATHFARNHAM / TEMPLEOGUE / FIRHOUSE / BOHERNABREENA AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, January 11, 2022

HEADED ITEM NO. 13

HEADED ITEM: L. Magee

Draft Public Realm Improvement Works Programme 2022.

REPLY:

The following is the list of improvement works proposed for the Rathfarnham/Templeogue/Firhouse/Bohernabreena area for 2022.  These proposals have been compiled from issues raised as agenda items at area committee meetings throughout the course of 2021, undertakings given in response to members representations throughout the year as well as works that have been identified by staff.  An additional sum of €100,000 has been provided in the revenue budget for 2022 on a once-off basis to fund bulb planting schemes.  The list below includes a total of 7 such schemes and this, along with proposals for other parts of the County, will account for that additional provision.  It should be noted that the list below does not include those works which have already been included in the Council's three year rolling capital works programme, it includes only those works of a small scale which are to be funded from the revenue budget.  

This list of schemes, along with lists of schemes for the other electoral areas, will be presented to the meeting of the County Council in February 2022 for the approval of the elected members.
