Volume 1: Written Statement

The current draft plans for Citywest don't allow for facilities which are overdue in the area to help with the social and mental well-being of our children and young adults. The area is one of the fastest growing in the country but all that is being built is new housing developments and no facilities to deal with the increase in population. At a minimum the area needs the following:

Sports Hall & facilities

Library

Community Centre with sufficient rooms for things like dance classes etc

Garda Station

Playgrounds - similar to Tymon Park & Corkagh Park

Cycle Tracks - similar to Corkagh Park

Without these things, our children have nothing to keep them occupied and will revert to unsociable behaviour which is becoming an ever increasing problem in the area.
