To ask the Chief Executive what would the approx. costing of culverting the Whitestown Stream between the Cloonmore Road and the N81 to build a linear community park enhanced with border hedge, trees and seating arrangement?
That this Area Committee calls on the Council to reconsider its position on the culverting of the Whitestown Stream between Cloonmore Road and the N81. This section of the Stream has now become an open sewer with domestic waste, stable waste, drug paraphernalia and stolen cars. It would mean the removal of what has become the most vandalised bridge in South Dublin and in its place we could have a fenced in tree lined linear park that could really enhance a community space between the estates of Cloonmore, Dromcarra and Bawnlea.
This Area Committee calls on South Dublin county Council to ensure that all community facilities are staffed to capacity and staff are paid reasonable rates for their work. South Dublin County is well served by a large network of community facilities covering the vast majority of the main neighbourhoods in the County. The majority of the existing community facilities in the County are built on Council owned land and are usually managed by independent local voluntary management committees under management licences provided by the Council.
