Questions
"To ask the Manager to give a report on the success or otherwise of the organised bonfire in Fettercairn ie did the exercise prevent further illegal bonfires in the area and to indicate the possibility of replicating this event in other areas for next Halloween?"
"To ask the Manager to advise the Committee as to when the two damaged litter bins, recently removed from Kingswood Heights, will be replaced?"
"To ask the Manager if there are any measures that the Council can take to combat the persistent problem of illegal dumping in Daletree estate.
As a regular occurrence, items such as white goods, general waste, carpets etc are being dumped all along Daletree Road and while the Environment Department are excellent in their removal of this waste when it is reported, there must be measures that can be taken to prevent this dumping in the first place?"
"To ask the Manager to consider the removal of the Graffiti on the wall all along the walls at Belgard Heights Tallaght Dublin 24 and the planting of 'creeper' plants to prevent the same vandalism being carried out again?"

To ensure that the Council builds on the success of this year's Open Day in Ballymount Civic Amenity and to allow more customers in the Tallaght area to avail of the free service, that the Manager will consider extending the scheme in 2011 to at least three weekends before Halloween.
Community
Questions
To ask the Manager to arrange to reposition the signage of Tallaght Leisure Centre onto either of the gable ends of the building facing out onto the new Outer Ring Road clearly maximising the excellent advertising potential to passersby, noting the current signs although aesthetically pleasing are too subtle to promote business and thereby increase revenue?
