"To ask the Chief Executive, for an area that would greatly appreciate additional play spaces, could we have an update on the progress of the Play Space Programme for each of the following locations; Perrystown, Limekiln-Tymon and Greenhills Park?"

Qu (4)
Submitted by:
Councillor S. Holland
Responsibility:
Leo Magee

"To ask the Chief Executive for an update of where the plans are for a path across the green area from Woodstown Abbey to Stocking Lane?"

Qu (5)
Submitted by:
Councillor C. McMahon
Responsibility:
Leo Magee

"To ask the Chief Executive to carry out a major clean up of the car park at the junction of Grange Road Rathfarnham R822 and Nutgrove Ave R821 and to ask the council how often it is scheduled for cleaning? This area has been neglected over the last few years & requires attention."

Qu (6)
Submitted by:
Councillor R. McMahon
Responsibility:
Leo Magee

"To ask the Chief Executive, in relation to the car park on the Kilininny Road, would it be possible to look at options to make this new public amenity less attractive as a dumping ground? 

There is a lot of flytipping in the carpark. At present the grass and hedgerow area are heavily littered with all manner of household litter and appliances.

The public lights are turned off at 10pm each evening but the gates are not locked, therefore the carpark is very enticing to flytippers. 

With the large numbers of children moving through the area for the schools and soccer club, it is only a matter of time before a child is injured on the abandoned debris."

Qu (7)
Submitted by:
Councillor Rob Russell
Responsibility:
Suzanne Furlong

"To ask the Chief Executive what proposals or requests if any are currently being explored for the provision of a playground/play space in the Firhouse area?"

Motions

Mot (4)
Submitted by:
Councillor P. Donovan
Responsibility:
Leo Magee

"That the Chief Executive draw up a plan of improvements to the car park on the Grange Road and present at our next Area Committee.  Resident feedback includes requests to screen/improve the look at the bring centre and replacement of the cycle shelter which is broken and dirty and some general improvements around planting, frequent grass cutting, increased litter warden checks & also check and remove any illegal signage."

Mot (5)
Submitted by:
Councillor S. Holland
Responsibility:
Mary Keenan

"That the Chief Executive inspect the trees in Glenmore Park and add to the pruning list, particularly those adjacent to no.2."

Mot (6)
Submitted by:
Councillor P. Foley
Responsibility:
Leo Magee

"With the temporary closing of the paths to the pitches in Tymon Park it will take some time for the sports clubs to walk around the alternative routes with equipment in tow.  It would be easier for the clubs to access their pitches from the Osprey Road pedestrian gate.  At weekends Templeogue Utd. and St. Judes GAA have matches with 10.00am kick offs.   As the Osprey Road gate opens at 10.00am on weekends, that the Chief Executive agree that this gate be opened earlier for the duration of the works."
