"There has been no reconvening of the High Level Task Force for St Cuthbert's Park since the initial meeting last year and residents and local groups such as The Friends of St Cuthbert's and Clondalkin Celtic are frustrated by a lack of progress on developing the park.
This Committee demands an immediate meeting of the High Level Task Force for St Cuthbert's Park."
"That this Committee agree that Corkagah Park be mapped out for a 5k and 3k walking/running track along existing paths using signage or markers and to redo any current markings that have faded and are hard to follow."
"This committee commends the tree pruning programme and the progress made in various parts of Clondalkin to date. However, it recognises the concerns of some residents who decry the felling of some beautiful, mature trees. Could a report be presented on the council's approach to tree maintenance, emphasising it's mainly conservative ethos which generally dictates that trees are not removed without very good reason and that trees once removed are generally replaced with a tree that is suited to the location."

"That this Committee congratulates Moorefield Shotokan on their achievements in winning awards at both national and international level and for their commitment in providing an outlet for the young people of Clondalkin."
"That this Committee recognises the huge contribution of Clondalkin Men's Shed and in order for them to grow and recruit more men that this Committee gets a report on Clondalkin Men's Shed for discussion that includes options for funding available to do up and supply the containers at Mayfield and to ask what SDCC can do to support this and also on the site on Orchard Lane, to include an estimated timeframe and to include any other options for Clondalkin Men's Shed."
"That the Chief Executive address the following issues in Clondalkin leisure centre gym section. Inconsistent water temperature, inconsistent water pressure, smell of what seems to be sewage, what appears to be mound growing around the trays in the showers.
TV stations available on the thread mills, cross trainers, music was piped through a system, there was always staff available in the gym area if you needed help, the gym area was kept clean, antibacterial hand gel was replenished, there was rarely any problems with water pressure and temperature. At the moment the radio is often not switched on, last week I have a suppressed immune system and last week I had to ask twice for antibacterial hand gel and there is rarely any staff around.
Can I ask how much has SDCC taken in from Clondalkin Leisure Centre in 2016 & 2017 please."
"This committee supports the Clondalkin Men's Shed in its search for a premises. It acknowledges the excellent work done by the group for the community and the extent to which participation in Men's Shed groups is good for the community and for the Men's Shed members themselves.
This committee asks for an update on the status of the Apartment which was set aside for community use at Orchard Lodge, Orchard Road.
This committee has also supported the idea of the Men's Shed using this space as long as other groups are accommodated.
Also, what is the update on the porta cabin at Mayfield.
Lastly could the community department investigate the possibility of the Men's Shed being accommodated in the Old Technical School on Monastery Road. It currently houses Youth Reach but I feel that it is under utilised.
I feel that the Men's Shed would be a good match for Youth Reach in any case."
"That this committee supports Knockmitten Community centre in seeking action from SDCC regarding the leak in the centre. The leak is getting worse and the safety is of most importance to all at Knockmitten as they provide community services. We ask SDCC to confirm a date that this work will be completed as to prevent the closing of the community centre on safety grounds."
