Questions
"To ask the Chief Executive to erect 'Children at Play' signs at the entrance to the Glencarrig Drive/Green/Court Estate. To also install ramps in the estate, located near the junction with the main road and further into the estate. Car parking for Firhouse Community College can also be problematic and cause danger - could the Council look at providing double yellow lines, particularly near corners?.
A petition from local residents requesting same is currently in hand."

"To ask the Chief Executive if he will consider installing a additional street lighting in the laneway between Scholarstown Park and Dargle Wood. Residents of Scholarstown Park have contacted me in relation to the poor standard of lighting on the pedestrian pathway between Scholarstown Park and Dargle Wood estate.
Presently there is one street light at the bottom of the path which is usually hidden in a chestnut tree hampering its effectiveness.
Since the removal of the 15 bus terminus at Scholarstown Road the nearest stop is now on the Knocklyon Road at Dargle Wood which means that there is extra traffic on the pathway as residents use the pathway to access the bus stop.
Therefore would the Council please consider the possibility of positioning another light on the pathway especially now with the approach of winter and dark nights ahead"
"Following on from motion Item ID: 50641 discussed in area committee 11/10/2016, that the roads department, as part of their assessment, begin consultations with the Department of Transport with a view to having a luas loop extended from Dundrum through to Rathfarnham, Ballyboden, Firhouse, Old Bawn through to Tallaght."

"I have been contacted by a resident (details supplied) about the possibility of a path for the northern perimeter of Greenhills Park that would connect to the current paths and form a circular route around the park. It would really enhance this amenity for the local residents. For the future and as long as it doesn't affect the pitches, could this additional path be considered."

"What is the timeline for each of the stages of the social housing development going in behind Owendoher Haven? What is the criteria for those who will to be getting the houses? Some of the traveler's accommodation in Owendoher Haven is in drastic need of an upgrade. Are travellers being considered for the houses going in?"

"To ask the Chief Executive that the area around the Ballyroan Library be considered for maintenance.
The residents of 48 to 54 Orchardstown Avenue are constantly maintaining the area to the side of the public library by cleaning and planting. Residents are hoping for 3 or 4 large planters at the side of the public library which they are happy to maintain.
Also, at the back and side of the library (Orchardstown Villas & Orchardstown Avenue) small stones have been placed to keep down weeds. There is concrete lip all along the back wall (on Orchardstown Villas) which keeps these stones in place but this lip does not continue around the side (on Orchardstown Ave). As the Orchardstown Ave residents are having constantly to brush the stones back into place, can this lip be extended around the side wall of the library.
