SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF LUCAN / PALMERSTOWN / NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

MOTION NO. 3

MOTION: Councillor Derren Ó Brádaigh

To ask the manager to outline any plans for the corner area of Griffeen Valley Park, located off Haydens Lane and immediately behind Johnsbride Green, formerly designated for the purpose as a model car racing track. Furthermore, that this council agrees to explore this area to utilise this valuable public park space, whilst helping to offset any recent ASB at this location.

REPORT:

The area in question is approximately 1,000 square meters in size.  Since the model car racing club vacated the site it has been maintained as a grassed area.  The vegetation on the periphery of the site adjacent to Johnsbridge Green and Haydens Lane have been cut back extensively to address ASB issues that had been taking place there in the past. 

Plans for the site include the removal of the small containers and steps that were used by the model car racing club.  Recent discussions have taken place regarding the provision of a goal post storage compound on this site, and this will be considered in its future use.
