QUESTION NO.9

QUESTION: Councillor William Joseph Carey

To ask the manager to immediately begin the process of taking in charge the public area outside of Sruleen primary school, as indicated from response from the manager at May Clondalkin area committee meeting and to offer a report on the status of St Johns Gate ,Clondalkin.

REPLY:

There is a section of Road outside school that is not Taken in Charge. This is marked grey on the attached map.  SDCC will have to check the ownership of this plot and get it Taken in Charge.

St. John Gate Estate is not Taken in Charge.  The developer Dorville Homes is no longer in business.  SDCC will have to write to the Chief State Solicitors if there is no legal owner to take ownership of the estate.  This leave is not always granted if there are lease holds on the property.   We will have to check whether there is a legally constituted Management Company existing as they may have existing rights on the land.  And or a plebiscite needs to be held before this estate could be Taken in Charge to ascertain the majority view on whether the estate should be Taken in Charge.
