  • To the Lord Mayor and Report No. 12/2019 Members of Dublin City Council Report of Assistant Chief Executive
    To the Lord Mayor and Report No. 12/2019 Members of Dublin City Council Report of Assistant Chief Executive _________________________________________________________________________ Revised Area Committee Structures – Post Local Elections 2019 _________________________________________________________________________ The new boundary provisions for the next City Council elections will be implemented from June 2019. The number of Local Electoral Areas (LEAs) in Dublin City will increase from 9 at present to 11 (Six on the north side and five on the south side). There will be no change in the number of elected members which will remain at 63. The local electoral areas will be smaller with a maximum of 7 elected members in each. The biggest changes in boundaries refer to the amalgamation of Rathmines with Crumlin/Kimmage and the creation of a new area covering Whitehall/Artane, however no existing area is left fully unchanged. These changes have implications for our existing area committee boundaries that have been in place for the last 10 years. They will also have implications for our existing area management structures, but this does give us a welcome opportunity to review, re-define and enhance those management structures. This report concentrates on the area committee boundaries and once these are agreed then we can focus on the staffing arrangements to support those structures and implement same before the elections are held in May 2019. The adoption of an area committee structure is a reserved function. I am setting out below details of the current structure and arrangements and I am also setting out a number of different options that could be put in place after the Local Elections in May 2019.

The Vision for the Dublin City Library is to be an icon of learning for all which will assist in defining and reflecting Dublin’s place as a life-long-learning City of the 21st Century. The Dublin City Library will be located in a landmark building, in a prime location at the heart of Dublin city centre. At present the Central Library is located on the first floor of the ILAC Shopping Centre. The location is not ideal and the facilities inadequate. However, this project is about the provision of a new ‘Dublin City Library’ – and not simply about transplanting the existing ‘Central Library’. In assessing the most appropriate location for the Dublin City Library it is absolutely es- sential that the provision of Library Services is the paramount consideration. The realisation of a project such as this entails three distinct stages - Site, Design and Procurement.
