It comes as the representative asked for people to engage with the public consultation process to develop a master plan for the area
Social Democrats TD for Kildare North Aidan Farrelly has asked the public to engage with the Castletown/Donaghcumper masterplan.
He is urging members of the public in Celbridge, Leixlip and further afield to engage in a public consultation process to develop a master plan for Castletown and Donaghcumper houses and demesnes.
Work on the masterplan, which will consider future uses, conservation requirements and future enhancements of the two properties is due to begin shortly after the Minister for Public Expenditure confirmed that the OPW is currently finalising a request for tender to appoint consultants to assist in the development of the overall masterplan.
In reply to a parliamentary question from TD Aidan Farrelly, the Minister confirmed that a public consultation process will be undertaken as part of the development of the masterplan.
It is anticipated that a tender will issue for this work via the eTenders website, in the coming weeks.
