"Re Four Districts Woodland Habitat Submission that this Area committee supports - The BCM Residents Association who would like to explore the potential of having the parcel of woodland adjacent to Rathcoole Park , becoming a natural amenity area for Rathcoole, Saggart, Newcastle and Brittas i.e. a regional amenity that would be unique to this part of South County Dublin. It will complement the existing and proposed park and play areas with the potential to become a tourist attraction and provide a link to the existing Slade Heritage Walk. The land in question is close to Swiftbrook (Saggart) Mill and Rathcoole Park ponds. This would be a prime location for school trips / tourism, and could provide a raw material source for local industry with the natural wood available."

Motion
Meeting:
Submitted by:
Councillor L. O'Toole
Responsibility:
Director of Corporate Performance and Change Management

South Dublin County Council is witnessing a low level crime epidemic which is only going to get worse if the under resourced Gardaí are not given the means necessary to tackle this problem. Communities in our County are really worried about their safety and security.

Every community has felt the effects of this crime across the County and since Garda resources have decreased significantly over the last number of years and despite commitments on Garda recruitment, it could take years before we see sufficient numbers of Gardaí on the ground.” 

This committee asks the Chief Executive to write to the Minister for Justice & Equality to confirm what plans are in place to increase Gardaí numbers and to commit to providing immediate resources required in areas that have a rapidly increasing youth population.
