"To ask the Chief Executive to arrange for the ongoing issue of standing water to be addressed on the N81 between the EP Mooney garage and the Charlie O'Toole Bridge on the Avonbeg side of the carriageway. This section of road has been flooding for years which causes cars to become difficult to control when they reach it and it's only a matter of time before there is a severe accident. The fast lane is the worse section?"

Question

"That this Committee calls on the Chief Executive to arrange for the nightly illegal dumping and burning of rubbish in the field beside Rossfield Close and Rossfield Park to be investigated with a view to bringing the culprits to Court for their anti-social behaviour which is destroying the environment and destroying residents air quality even in their homes."

Motion

Hugh Hogan, Gerry Fitzgibbon

"That this Committee calls on the Estate Management Section of the Housing Department to identify where stolen cars are gaining access to the green space adjacent to Whitestown stream along Dromcarra and Bawnlea Estates with a view to blocking this access to so called joyriders. At time of submitting this Motion three burnt out cars were lying at Dromcarra. This narrow strip of green space is used by hundreds of pedestrians each day and their lives are being put in danger. With this in mind, this Committee further calls on the Council to liaise with An Garda Síochána with a view to swift response to residents and an increase of patrols in this area. I have already raised this and a similar issue in Killinarden with them at JPC level."
