MOTION NO.16

MOTION: Councillor C. Brady

That this committee calls on the Chief Executive to conduct a feasibility study into the provision of a permeable-paved parking area on the easternmost part of Lucan House grounds (adjoining Main Street) so as to provide a much-needed solution to the parking shortage in Lucan Village, to provide parking for visitors to Lucan House, and the village; and to generally support traffic management and the economic sustainability of the village as proposed by Lucan Village stakeholders.

REPORT:

The forthcoming Masterplan for Lucan House and Demesne lands will address all aspects of the operation and functionality of the property. An assessment of parking matters generally will form part of the work. 

Stakeholder engagement will be an important component and as such, engagement with key stakeholders and the community shall commence at an early stage of the process to obtain the local and wider community views and opinions and will actively continue right through concept design and inform the Masterplan.  It is expected that a consultant will be appointed by November 2024 to commence the process.
