MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE (2)

Monday 26th June, 2006

QUESTION NO. 5

QUESTION: Councillor J. Neville

"To ask the Manager for an update on the complete taking-in-charge of Radhairc na Habhainn, Old Bawn and will the Manager please note that this estate is approximately nine years old and will the Manager outline what issues are delaying the successful taking-in-charge of the estate including the green area and will the Manager make a statement on the matter?"

REPLY:

The roads and services in Radharc na Habhain, Old Bawn, were taken-in-charge in May 2003.

Title difficulties have arisen in this case, which have delayed the transfer of ownership of the open space to the Council. Whilst the transfer of title is continuing to be pursued by the Council’s Law Department, it is now proposed to take the open space in charge for maintenance purposes, pending resolution of the title issues.
