"That the Council erect a statutory No U-Turn sign at the entrance of Templeville Park and that associated signs prohibiting this U-turn be erected on the approach roads."
"That this committee discusses the recommendations of the consultants report engaged to examine the issue of School Transport / School Buses and the reommendations made in that report that the Department of Environment have refusesd to fund i.e. the design of nine dedicated school bus routes. That this Council write again to the Minister for the Environment pointing out the reduction in C02 and the contribution this would make to Ireland achieving it target as agreed in Kyoto Protocol. (b) that this committee recommends in the event of a negative reply from the Minister that SDCC take steps to launch one pilot project (with the aid of Parents/schools) contracting out the service to private providers - as the survey indicated that such a service would be popular in South Dublin County Council Area. This could be achieved under the 'private bus hire' service."
"That this Committee recommends that the Council apply the monies realised from the proposed sale of sites in the County to the construction of the Knocklyon Road."
"That the Manager immediately re-instate the right turn from Templeogue Road into Springfield Avenue by applying the same logic as was applied by Dublin City Council in reinstating the right turn into Rathfarnham Road in Terenure Village. The same factors apply to both junctions."
"That this committee discusses the re-alignment of the Knocklyon Road that this committee and Council agreed to proceed with as a PRIORITY for funding in the TRAC area ; noting that this is on the Agenda of the Council for over 30 years – i.e. before the foundation of SDCC and as there would be very few if anything else on the agenda of SDCC for such a lengthy duration that this be taken into consideration. The councillors who voted for this voted in good faith and request that this be honoured and work proceed immediately."
"That the Manager discuss the serious situation existing on Limekiln Lane adjacent to the Church in relation to speeding, anti-social behaviour, safety, security, joy-riding, gangs of youths in church grounds, burnt out cars, and heath and safety concerns of the local residents and to ask the Council to provide traffic calming measures and cameras on the road and in the church grounds to help overcome these ongoing problems."
