MOVED WITHOUT DEBATE
I have been contacted by a number of residents in relation to the bridge and its maintenance leading into the side of Edenbrook Court, off the Ballyboden Road (See attached).

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.
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.
