QUESTION NO. 5

QUESTION: Councillor S. O'Hara

To ask the Chief Executive to explore the possibility of reproducing the original 2001 SDCC booklet on Corkagh Park, pdf copy attached, incorporating updates and new content, and also consider redesigning and updating the information boards to reflect the latest developments and historical data, as part of the overall upgrade to the park currently underway.

REPLY:

SDCC are currently using the information from the 2001 booklet, as well as the latest developments and archaelogical date uncovered to review the information boards and they will be available this week. In addition the information will be included in a new sign that will give information and imagery on the original Corkagh Park Demesne House and will be displayed in the new hub area. Furthermore, SDCC will provide access to this information on www.sdcc.ie, which will be accessible via a QR code on the new signage currently beign designed that will be provided as part of the Corkagh Park upgrade currently underway. It is felt this is preferable to a new booklet as the information can be kept updated; however the information in the 2001 booklet remains relevant and is a useful record of the history and evolution of the park.
