QUESTION NO. 13

QUESTION: Councillor C. O'Connor

To ask the Chief Executive for details of Sports Capital Programme Grants recently announced in respect of applications made by the Council and in reporting will he detail plans for the works and make a statement? 

REPLY:

Following a successful application to the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media under their Sports Capital Grant programme, SDCC are the recipients of over €2 million in funding granted to 18 individual projects. The applications were made by the Public Realm Section of the Environment Water and Climate Change Dept in partnership with the Community Dept’s Sports Development Section.

The grants will further enhance the development of sport and facilities countywide and  allow SDCC to continue to successfully implement our Sports Pitch Strategy, adopted by the Council in 2021. The Grants received include funding towards the upgrade of existing grass and all-weather pitches and the provision of ancillary facilites. The Department also granted funding towards the further delivery of the pavillion programme in our larger parks to allow groups and clubs access to changing facilities to replace existing container use. There are also grants towards the development of new pitches at Kiltipper Park and a new bike track at Dodder Valley Mt. Carmel, in accordance with the Part 8 grant of planning permission for those parks. The individual amounts are set out below:
