MOTION NO.76

MOTION: Councillor E. Murphy

Chapter 8 CE Report p.736; SD-C195-11 That SDCC makes provision for a SLO for a swimming pool complex serving the growing Ballycullen, Knocklyon and Firhouse communities in this Development Plan

REPORT:

This motion proposes a SLO for a swimming pool complex serving the growing Ballycullen, Knocklyon and Firhouse communities in this Development Plan.

A previous motion was put forward to amend the Draft County Development to include for the provision of a swimming pool in the Knocklyon / Firhouse area at the South Dublin County Council Development Plan Meeting which was held on Thursday 17th June 2021 under Items ID: 70653 and 71301. Against the CE Recommendation the outcome was COS4 Objective 15 which states:

‘To provide a swimming pool with leisure facilities in the Rathfarnham/Knocklyon/Firhouse areas’.

It is considered that this objective, already in the Draft Plan, can be amended to include Ballycullen. 

CE Recommendation: It is recommended that this motion is adopted with amendment so that COS4 Objective 15 reads:

‘To provide a swimming pool with leisure facilities In the Rathfarnham/Knocklyon/Firhouse/Ballycullen areas’.
