MOTION NO. 2

MOTION: Councillor P. Kearns

That the manager report on why the public toilets in Tymon Park at the Wellington lane entrance have been out of commission for so long and when they might be operational again.

REPORT:

The toilets at the Wellington Lane car park in Tymon Park have been closed for a period of time due to an inflow of water into the toilet block from an underground water source.  In order to remedy this situation, it will be necessary to remove the toilet block entirely so that the ground can be excavated, and the water flow diverted to the nearby pond.

The Council has now appointed a contractor to carry out the necessary remedial works. It will not be possible to re-open the toilets until these workss have been completed, and this is expected to take a number of weeks.
