| Please find below the progress summary and next steps of the PWHC Padel project. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
| Planning |
| |
| We received a request for further information (“RFI”) from Dublin City Council planning department. This is a normal event and is used by the council to address any issues on which they are looking for additional clarity. |
| |
| The two areas of focus of the RFI are: |
| |
| 1. The Traffic Management Plan, with a focus on cycling infrastructure |
| |
| 2. The drainage plan for the site |
| |
| We have now engaged third parties to liaise directly with the council to ensure that the RFI submission meets the requirements. |
| |
| In terms of timelines, from when we submit the RFI, the planning authority has four weeks to make a final decision. Depending on the decision, the party that lodged an observation or Pembroke then has 4 weeks to appeal. Once an appeal is lodged, An Bord Pleanala typically takes between 4-9 months depending on the complexity of the project. |
| |
Operational Design
The Padel sub-committee is tasked with researching and recommending an operational model for Padel at Pembroke, building a business plan and making a proposal to members with a recommendation.
|
| |
| We have broadly completed our initial research phase, including the club survey, club presentations and many stakeholder engagements. |
| |
| We are currently engaging with third party operators to analyse how best Padel would fit into the existing club infrastructure for the benefit of the hockey club and its members. |
| |
Fundraising
There is a clear preference to fund the project internally. We will shortly share details and invite expressions of interest from members.
|
| |
Summary
There is a lot of hard work ongoing to progress the project. To note no development will proceed without a full proposal being presented for a members’ vote, at the AGM or a special EGM.
If you have any questions, please get in touch with Strategic Projects Officer – Patrick Good Patrick.good@pembrokewanderers.ie
