We asked

In May 2025 DLRCoCo invited the public to make submissions in the identification of Bathing Waters under the Bathing Waters Directive and the Bathing Water Quality Regulations 2008 (SI No 79 of 2008).

 

You said

Three submissions were received before the closing date 27th June 2025. One submission was for the Quinns’ road entry point area on Shankill beach, the second was for the Corbawn Lane entry point area to Shankill beach, and a third submission was received for Williamstown Sea front in Blackrock.

We did

All submissions were reviewed against the EPA criteria provided in the framework to assist the local authorities in the assessment of submissions for the identification of new bathing waters. Unfortunately, all three did not satisfy the minimum criteria required to be considered designated bathing areas due to safety concerns and the financial commitments required to bring these locations up to designated bathing water standards. We would like to point out that Corbawn lane in Shankill is already a Monitored Water location in DLRCoCo inside and outside of bathing season. This means that regular water samples are taken and made public on DLRCoCo website and social media channels. All three locations will continue to be attended regularly for the removal of rubbish, to check public water safety equipment etc. Access points will continue to be maintained as required. 

We asked

Dlr Parks undertook a public consultation survey for the upgrade of playgrounds at Clonmore Park, Stillorgan Heath, Leopardstown from the 15th April to the 6th May 2025.

This feedback will help create a brief and specification for the playground to be tendered out to design and build, during 2025.  

The consultation program aims to:

Determine the main users of the playground

Determine support for the playground

Gather ideas from the community for the playground design.

You said

Clonmore Park Playground received 254 Citizen space responses and 2 emails.

We did

The surveys for each playground have been analysed and the summary of the findings are within the attached reports. These reports will be included within the tender documents, and it is essential that the most wanted elements will be included within the design.

We will provide further updates through the dlr website and at the playgrounds in time.
