MEETING OF LUCAN / PALMERSTOWN / NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

MOTION NO.11

MOTION: Councillor G. O'Connell

Can the Chief Executive give a time frame or schedule when the reserved right of way from the Heritage Clinic to the River Liffey will be available to the public and if there is any fear that failure to take it in charge to date may jeopardise its future availability.

REPORT:

The right of way is a fact granted by the grant of planning permission, which does not expire. The lands mentioned have already been ceded to South Dublin County Council; so their availability is secured. While the lands mentioned are ceded to South Dublin County Council; they are not developed sufficiently to enable public access. The gradient leading to the lands in question is significant and does not easily lend itself to public access. The lands require improvement to facilitate adequate access to the site; there is no programme or budget currently available for these works.
