QUESTION NO.5

QUESTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

To ask the Chief Executive if there are any plans to extend or add an additional boules court alongside the existing one in Griffeen Park. Discussions with the newly established Griffeen Petanque Club have highlighted the need for this expansion as the club continues to grow and participates in numerous tournaments. An additional court would support their development and allow them to host larger events at Griffeen Park.

REPLY:

There are currently no plans to extend or add additional courts to the boules court at Griffeen Valley Park. However, the existing court was purposely located in an area with sufficient space to allow for an extension or additional court to be provided if required. The club should contact Public Realm and the Sports Partnership to discuss any requirement for an extension to the existing court or the provision of an additional court.
