That this committee calls on the Chief Executive to explain what steps can be taken to address the ongoing flooding issues in Tymon park every time we have heavy rainfall.
That the Chief Executive install three public bins into Greenhills Park early in the New Year.
This park is well utilised by the local community with people enjoying the public green space to walk their dog, to play football and run. The community works hard at ensuring litter is picked up regularly and I also note the hard work of South Dublin County Council staff and the work they do within the park.
The community cannot understand why public bins are not provided for in this green space. We want to encourage park users to be responsible with their rubbish and providing a few public bins would do just that.
We would also ask the Chief Executive to consider providing belly bins and/or segregated bins to allow for the separation of recyclable and general waste.
That this committee calls on the Chief Executive to prioritise the repair of Rathfarnham Castle playground and provide a clear timetable for its completion to this committee as swings, bridges and playing equipment have fallen into disrepair and have been removed.

That this committee requests more frequent weekly inspections by Litter Wardens and Waste Enforcement Officers for the Dublin 12 laneways.
This committee requests that the Chief Executive conduct a public consultation with residents in an effort to address the ongoing issues in relation to illegal dumping and overgrown weeds in the Dublin 12 laneways.
Such a consultation ought to consider every possibility up to and including the possible installation of CCTV at the entryways to lanes.

Motions
That this Council will investigate what has occured at laneway known as Willbrook Park Lane, currently gated where residents had previously been given keys to the gate as a means of access to the rear of their homes. Access has been denied with the changing of the locks by the Council and no distribution of keys, and one resident has taken action that would appear to be supporting a future claim of adverse possession by sectioning off part of the lane way for his exclusive use.
THIS MOTION FALLS.

Motions
Edenbrook Court Rathfarnham
Motion: This area committee now requires that the council report and investigate on the actions that have occurred; whether there has been any consultation with the Council on works in that area or proposed works. As the area is now a health and safety hazard to the children in the estate, the removal of the railings and gate is an unlawful act as they formed the perimeter fence of the estate, the Council needs to act in defence of public safety and to clarify the status of that estate, regarding being taken in charge, ownership of the pedestrian access, and enforcement of the planning permission.
Economic Development
Questions
To ask the Chief Executive to set out details of tourism events in Rathfarnham/Templeogue/Firhouse/Bohernabreena which will be supported by the Council during 2020?
