MEETING OF LUCAN / PALMERSTOWN / NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, April 25, 2023

QUESTION NO. 3

QUESTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

This committee asks that Chief Executive agrees to installing goal post storage for the AGP0 pitch, similar to ones recently placed in other locations of the park.

REPLY:

Pitch AGP0 on the Google maps image attached to this item is referred to as pitch No 5 in the Councils pitch allocation system.  It is a GAA pitch which is located to the east of the Weston Hockey Club all weather pitch.  The pitch is currently allocated to Lucan Sarsfield GAA club. 

The provision of storage compounds is subject to the proximity of existing storage facilities in the area and a source of funding to install one if considered appropriate.  The storage facilities which have been provided at other locations in recent years have been funded by sports capital grant allocations with the Council providing the necessary 30% match funding for each project.  It should be noted however that the next round of sports capital grants has not opened as yet for applications.
