QUESTION: Councillor E. Ó Broin
To ask the Chief Executive if any parts of Kilcarbery Grange have been taken in charge by SDCC yet?
REPLY:
Currently, no phases of the Kilcarbery-Grange estate have been taken in Charge by South Dublin County Council.
The developer is engaging with South Dublin County Council and progressing the taking in charge checks and submissions on several phases of the development. However, some significant items are still to complete. Several SDCC departments are working consistently with the developer to try to address the remaining snags and to start the public taking in charge consultation of some of the phases of this estate. An insurance bond is being retained by the Council for each of the phases of the estate. These bonds will encourage the developer to complete the taking in charge process in a timely manner in order to discharge the need and cost of maintaining the bond in place.
