QUESTION NO.3

QUESTION: Councillor P. Gogarty

To ask the Chief Executive why it has taken so long to formalise legal arrangements around land ownership with the property owner in question under membersrep 1822155, as this has dragged on since March and the delay will shortly impact on the viability of the important community service provided; to outline if the matter can be resolved imminently and meetings set up if necessary; and if a statement can be made on the matter.

REPLY:

Further to reviewing the land ownership at the location in question, EETD engaged with relevant Council Departments to establish their views on taking steps to address the matter. The position re-stated on review is that the Council retain ownership of land in this location in the Griffeen Valley Park and proximate to St. Johns Bridge, a protected structure.
