QUESTION: Councillor F. Timmons

To ask the Chief executive would SDCC issue a letter to The Rathcoole Woodlands group that would like to pursue funding from formal Grant streams for environmental based surveys and would like to know if SDCC would supply a letter indicating that access to SDCC lands would be granted if the Woodlands needed such a letter for funding applications?

South Dublin County Council are progressing the preparation of a scheme for the Rathcoole lands and are undertaking all environmental appraisals as part of this masterplan work. The Council won’t be issuing any consent to third parties to undertake survey work on the relevant lands.
