MOTION NO. 4

MOTION: Councillor P. Gogarty

That the Chief Executive urgently replaces the surface of the playground at Castlegate Park and allocates funding in the upcoming budget for a proper upgrade of this area given that it has been many years since previous improvement works were carried out.

REPORT:

The Public Realm Section previously ran a tender process for the resurfacing of the playground surface however it was unsuccessful.  A number of companies were subsequently approached directly regarding the project however they were not in a position at the time to carry out the works.

A new framework for playground works has recently been concluded and it is expected that upon appointment of the successful tenderer, an order will be issued for the resurfacing of the playground which will include the repair of any play equipment where required.
