COMHAIRLE CONTAE FHINE GALL FINGAL COUNTY COUNCIL BALBRIGGAN/SWORDS AREA COMMITTEE MEETING (Services B – Strategic & General Matters) THURSDAY 11TH FEBRUARY 2016 SWIMMING POOL FUNDING – BALBRIGGAN WARD ITEM NO. 7
Question: Councillor B. Dennehy - Swimming Pool Funding, Balbriggan Ward. "To ask the Chief Executive what funding is available for the establishment of a Swimming Pool in the Balbriggan Ward?"
Reply: There is no provision in the Capital Programme 2016 – 2018 for the development of swimming pools. Swimming pools are an extremely expensive piece of infrastructure to provide and operate. Fingal County Council to date has not provided such facilities with the need, where it exists, being met by the private sector.
