MEETING OF LUCAN / PALMERSTOWN / NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, November 22, 2022

QUESTION NO. 15

QUESTION: Councillor P. Gogarty

To ask the Chief Executive to report on the current stage of the appointment process of a manager for the new Lucan pool and refurbished leisure centre, to outline the last time former groups using the facility were phoned or corresponded with, to indicate when they will be contacted in future; and if a statement can be made on the matter.

REPLY:

An award notification letter has now issued to the successful tenderer in the procurement competition to select an operator to operate, manage and maintain Lucan Leisure Campus on behalf of the Council.  Once the required procurement standstill period has been observed and a contract put in place in early December, the local elected Members will be advised of the identity of the selected operator who will also then engage with local sports and community groups as part of their preparations to commence management of the facility upon completion of the current construction works.
