MOTION NO.7

MOTION: Councillor E. Ó Broin

This committee agrees to improve the Rose Garden at Rathcoole Park which has been neglected.

REPORT:

The Rose Garden in Rathcoole Park has been assessed and in order to improve its condition significant works are required.  The works will necessitate the removal of existing plants, cultivation of soil and replacement planting.  This work presents an opportunity to improve the existing planting scheme by including pollinator friendly perennials and roses.  Subject to the approval of this motion, the upgrade of the rose garden will be listed for consideration in the draft Public Realm Improvement Works Programme for 2024
