MEETING OF LUCAN / PALMERSTOWN / NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, May 24, 2022

MOTION NO. 1

MOTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

This committee seeks an update on the agreed motion passed previously in regard to carrying out an audit in the Adamstown area to ascertain the need for extending the Adamstown Community Centre to facilitate a Youth Cafe/Centre. Given the continued growth in the area in the young population and with the continuation of planned developments including the part8 development at Balgaddy and Foxborough area this committee requests the Chief Executive to examine the possibility of designing a new youth centre next to the Careline centre (opposite Kishoge CC) as this would be in keeping with the services already existing here and would be easily populated with the young citizens of the area.

REPORT:

We are reviewing the recent facilities survey findings and we will also be liaising with colleagues in Architects, Planning and Public Realm to discuss these findings and future plans for all key neighbourhoods. There is a significant pipeline of community projects in development as part of the 3 year Capital programme. Also as per Adamstown SDZ the planning department has confirmed that a civic multi-use centre will be priortised and provided in Adamstown within the next phase of development.
