MEETING OF LUCAN / PALMERSTOWN / NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, September 27, 2022

QUESTION NO. 11

QUESTION: Councillor P. Gogarty

To ask the Chief Executive for an update on the appointment of a management company for the refurbished Lucan Leisure Centre and, given the concerns expressed by former users as per multiple motions and questions on the agenda, to outline in list form which if any of these have received written correspondence or telephone calls from Council staff in the last three months updating them on the situation.

REPLY:

The process for the engagement of an operator to manage, operate and maintain the Lucan Leisure Campus, comprising the swimming pool and the existing leisure centre is at the final stage of a procurement process and it is expected that the successful candidate will be announced in October.  It is envisaged that the successful operator will then be in a position to begin the required operational planning process. This will involve beginning an assessment process in relation to previous and future use plans. This will include a relevant partner engagement process.
