"That this area committee expresses its concern at proposed patrols of Griffeen Valley Park, by concerned residents of the Lucan area and requests the Chief Executive liaise with the community policing unit of Lucan Garda Station to endeavour to deal with outbreaks of anti social behaviour in co ordination with the Council's park ranger service."
"That this Committee expresses it thanks to traffic engineering staff for providing proposals to the last meeting of this Committee to enhance ‘Safe Routes to School’ in the Lucan Road/Chapel Hill area; however noting the feedback from school parents, requests the Chief Executive:
- To provide funding to widen the footpath on the north side of Lucan Road, immediately west of the entrance to St. Ed’s hospital, noting parents’ concerns that the proposal for raised kerb may present a trip hazard, particularly where groups of kids are walking together;
- To conduct a Section 38 consultation later this year on the proposal for a redesign of the junction of Lucan Road and Chapel Hill to remove the slip road (while very welcome) so as to ensure a chance for input from the broader community."
"To ask the Chief Executive for an update on the timeframe for the Part 8 public consultation on the proposed Lucan Swimming Pool?"
"That this area committee requests the Chief Executive confirm a timeframe for commencement of construction of the playground at Waterstown Park, Palmerstown given that it was originally budgeted for in 2015 - but instead funding went to Tymon North refurbishment - but is now firmly back on the agenda following the overwhelming support shown for it in the "300k Have Your Say" process; and also to outline what security measures will be put in place during construction and upon completion, given the recent experience at Griffeen Valley Park (which was raised by this Councillor on several occasions); and if a statement can be made on the matter."
"That this area committee requests the Chief Executive set in place a summer blitz of litter blackspots in the Lucan and Palmerstown area as a number of locations have been identified to elected reps (to be listed at this meeting)."
"To ask the Chief Executive for a further update on the swimming pool for Lucan and whether it is yet possible to confirm a date for the Pool4Lucan Campaign representatives to meet and input, to clarify the current likely sod turning, construction commencement and completion dates; and if a statement can be made on the matter."
"That the Chief Executive outlines his current position in relation to supporting a clubhouse for Esker Boxing club off Willsbrook Road, given that planning permission was granted on the site (without prejudice), to outline what would be required from the club to ensure such a facility can be built on the site under licence/lease (eg other clubs using it, financial contribution etc), to outline what discussions have taken place to date, and to examine whether there is sufficient space for an additional potential facility at the rear of the site under the current planning permission."
"To ask the Chief Executive for details on what enforcement action has been taken against the owner of the premises at *details supplied* who appear to be in breach of planning regulations and previously had a planning enforcement file opened on them?"
"That this Committee calls on the Chief Executive to prioritise the pruning of the trees at the bottom of Tree Park Road on the green space where Kevin's Celtic have their football pitches. The trees are very overgrown and blocking views from the road which is attracting some anti-social behaviour."
"That this Committee assess the condition of the walkway between Lanndale Lawns and Birchwood Heights. The footpath is in bad repair in sections and an elderly resident recently had a fall."
"That this Committee asks the Chief Executive when repair works will be completed on the apartments in Gleann Na hEorna and when will they be ready for residents to move back in."
"To ask the Chief Executive if he would consider erecting signage at the entrance into Westpark Gate Apartments. Some elderly residents have complained that they get a lot of callers to their doors at night such as take away deliveries because people are unaware where Westpark Gate is. If proper signage was erected this might help solve the issue?"
"That this Committee notes the on-going issues with the drains located between 120 & 140 The Crescent Millbrook Lawns. In the last year the drains have flooded on several occasions, the last time was at the end of May when raw sewage was pumped out on the roads and gardens in the area. The residents would like to express their appreciation to the Management for their quick reaction to the problem in absolutely horrendous weather conditions on this occasion. But they are calling for this Committee to call on the Chief Executive to support a full survey of the drains in the area and to carry out works to make sure that these problems do not arise again. Also, since this last incident there has been a problem with rat infestation and so this Committee calls on the Chief Executive to arrange to have the area fully treated."
"To ask the Chief Executive to list all Council owned vacant homes within the Tallaght area, listing the addresses, the number of bedrooms, what date they are vacant since and when they are expected to be ready for reallocation to a new family?"
"To ask the Chief Executive to consider the installation of a footpath from the bus stop on Killinarden Heights across the green space towards Hazelgrove Estate in an effort to facilitate the many pupils attending Scoil Cáitlín Maude in addition to the many residents that use this bus stop daily. Currently they step off the bus on to a mucky field?
"That this Committee calls on the Chief Executive to initiate legal proceedings against the management company and/or individual shop owners/leaseholders at Killinarden shops for the scandalous condition the complex is kept in. Last year I called on the Chief Executive to ensure they (shops) were providing the appropriate number of bins for the complex which still appears not to have been done. Residents from the entire Killinarden parish as far as Hazelgrove have raised this matter with me and others over the past number of months and are upset that the look of the area is being tarnished because of the lack of care around the shops."
"That this Committee calls on the Chief Executive to demand that Circle VHA & management company carry out a "crackdown" on illegal dumping within Deerpark Estate particularly around bin sheds and suggests that each household that requires a key to bin sheds is provided with one with a view to decreasing the problem. Keys are being withheld from some residents which many believe is adding to the problem."
"That this Committee calls on the Chief Executive to carry out costings and a feasibility study on providing a new Road from Killinarden Hill to Scoil Cáitlín Maude as the safety and traffic issues raised by residents and the school prior to the grant of planning permission have come to pass and are unmanageable in the context of the current Road network."
"To ask the Chief Eecutive to update the Committee on when the ramps that were proposed and agreed on for Killinarden Hill in the vicinity of Hazelgrove Estate over two years ago and to provide an estimated timeframe for their installation?"
"To ask the Chief Executive to consider an appropriate form of traffic calming on Deerpark Road as a matter of safety and for traffic coming from Deerpark Way onto Deerpark Road to be considered as part of any decision/proposal?"
