QUESTION: Councillor E. Ó Broin
To ask the chief executive if he would support the creation of a publicly owned/leased pop-up shop space as has been done in DLR? ( See : https://www.dlrcoco.ie/business/pop-shop )
REPLY:
The Council have provided retail space for a range of products in Brú Chrónáin, Round Tower Visitors Centre, Clondalkin, for local entrepreneurs. The outcome of this initiative will be evaluated and reviewed. There are no current plans to extend this initiative into commercial shop units in a Shopping Centre for example, however contact will be made with DLR Co Co to understand the basis of their approach and the impact of the scheme in terms of job creation/support.
