At last Monday’s December’s South Dublin County Council meeting the Part 8 public consultation for the proposed site in Ballyowen Park just off the Fonthill Rd for an equine facility was passed unanimously by all present Councillors.

Cllr Gino Kenny who has worked closely with the equine club over the past three years said, ” This is a momentous day for the Clondalkin Equine Club and the wider community. The passing of the Part 8 now gives the local authority permission to build a state of art equine facility at the location. Hopefully this project will be a blueprint for other social projects around the country to replicate. After a massive amount of work done by the Club Clondalkin will finally have an equine facility to be proud of.”

The project should be up and running in the summer of 2016.
