QUESTION NO.

QUESTION: Councillor K. Keane

"To ask if there are any plans to install a water hydrant in the new dog park at the Jobstown Park?"

REPLY:

There are currently no plans to install a hydration point for dogs in Jobstown Park, as there is no suitable water connection available in proximity to the dog run. Water infrastructure in public parks is subject to connection agreements with Uisce Éireann, who require connections to be made within 20 metres of a suitable water mains. Unfortunately there are no available water mains within this distance of the dog park. The Council will continue to explore opportunities for future service upgrades should infrastructure become available nearby however at present a connection is not feasible.
