MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

QUESTION NO. 14

QUESTION: Councillor C. O'Connor

"To ask the CEO to confirm plans for works on the Open Space at Ambervale noting that it is the understanding of the local community that such works were the subject of commitments in respect of the development levies from the developer of the new apartment block at the nearby Cookstown Luas stop; will he appreciate the needs of the community in the matter and make a statement?"

REPLY:

The Public Realm Section is not aware of any commitments given regarding the open space at Ambervale Estate or of any planned works for this area.  The Planning Dept have been consulted on the matter and they have advised that it is not possible to ring fence development contributions in the manner suggested here.  The Public Realm Section is however open to having a discussion with local elected representatives with regard to what the needs are in the Ambervale area.
