QUESTION NO. 5

QUESTION: Councillor E. O'Brien

To ask the Chief Executive Officer to confirm when works will commence on the pitch at "AGP 1" in Griffeen Valley Park, to confirm the extent of the works to be carried out and when the works will be complete. Is it anticipated that these works will result in the pitch being available for longer periods during the year.

REPLY:

The pitch in question is Pitch 13 which is a GAA pitch currently allocated to Lucan Sarsfield GAA Club.  Sports Capital Grant funding has been awarded for the upgrade of this pitch to include levelling and drainage works.  SDCC are currently tendering for these works. Once the price and programme has been confirmed SDCC will be in contact with the club to discuss same as the works will involve a period of construction and re-establishment.  The works will result in an improved surface and enhance the playability of the pitch throughout the year.
