"Can I be furnished with information as to what role the rail Procurement Agency played in establishing the Luas Tram link to City west. From the Fettercairn Stop to the junction of Cheeverstown Road there is a strip of land that is lying derelict for a long number of years. Whose responsibility is it to have this land properly landscaped to the satisfaction of the Fettercairn Residents? Is it the Council or is it the Rail Procurement Agency albeit Luas.

Quarterly report on Litter Management Plan
This Council is concerned at the impact that Circular Letter PL 02/2018, issued by Minister Eoghan Murphy will have on the ability of elected members to properly understand the technical and planning implications of planning applications in their area. These presentations at our Area Committee are essential in informing our submissions as part of the formal planning process and helping us advise residents on their planning submissions.
We ask that the Chief Executive send a letter to the Minister, outlining our concerns about the impact that this decision will have on our ability to properly carry out our functions as elected representatives, and asking for the following clarification from the Minister in relation to the Circular
(1) Does the ability of Planners to give technical and planning advice to developers in pre planning consultation meetings remain uneffected?
(2)Has the Department received legal advice on how this Circular impacts on the Aarhus Convention which guarantees Public Access to information, Public Participation in decision making and access to Justice and Environmental matters, while issuing no direction to Local Authority planning staff on their pre Part 3 consultation with private developers on the parameters of their application?
(3) What impact does this circular have on holding planning information meetings with Residents etc?
(4) On what legal basis was this direction, which allows the Minister to direct officials about the manner in which they exercise their powers and how they inform elected members regarding planning applications made?
We further propose that in the event of this circular not being withdrawn, that all pre planning proposals which will have a significant impact on our local areas be presented to the area committee in advance of a formal planning application being lodged.
'That this committee requests the Chief Executive to write to REPAK inviting them to make a presentation to the members regarding the current recycling process in Ireland including measures to improve recycling and the impact these measures may have on consumers.
To also request details on any planned future initiatives or campaigns by REPAK or any of it’s business members to reduce waste.'
"That this Committee give an update in fines issued in relation to the car park at the Steering Wheel. Has SDCC written to the owner requesting clean up of the site"
"With the temporary closing of the paths to the pitches in Tymon Park it will take some time for the sports clubs to walk around the alternative routes with equipment in tow. It would be easier for the clubs to access their pitches from the Osprey Road pedestrian gate. At weekends Templeogue Utd. and St. Judes GAA have matches with 10.00am kick offs. As the Osprey Road gate opens at 10.00am on weekends, that the Chief Executive agree that this gate be opened earlier for the duration of the works."
