When will all estates in Dromahair be 'taken in charge' - Bohan

Cllr Mary Bohan asked the current position regarding the taking in charge of the remaining estates in Dromahair by Leitrim Country Council.  
 
The motion was put forward at the latest Manorhamilton municipal district meeting where the response noted that the Council is giving consideration to the taking in charge of a number of estates throughout the county, however, it cannot give any commitment on when the processes will be completed.
 
The response continued: "The taking in charge process requires the council to engage with and obtain the agreement of Uisce Éireann to the taking in charge of the water services."
 
The official response added that, "specifically with regard to Dromahair, there are 16 housing developments in the urban centre, eight of which have been taken in charge by the council. Of the remaining eight, two of them do not qualify to be taken in charge (Castle Court and Stone Abbey).
 
"There remains six estates that are eligible for taking in charge, two of which have not requested their estates to be taken in charge (Castle Cove and Wood Green).
 
"Of the remaining four estates, the council has settled bonds with regard to Churchfield, Forest Grove and The Acres. The Acres is most advanced with surveys being undertaken by capital projects with a view to having the required works undertaken in due course.
 
"Churchfield and Forest Grove will follow in 2024. There is no bond in place for Larkfield Lawns and the taking in charge of this estate will be dependent on Uisce Éireann's acceptance of no funding being available to undertake the required works."
