That a report be given to the meeting in respect of the land adjoining the Lucan Road (or Old Lucan Road) that is at the rere of Esker Lawns estate in relation to its proximity to the road and footpath and any potential hazards for pedestrians or motorists from slippage from the land or trees or branches falling (details supplied*) *See attached reply to a representation when there was some slippage from the land on to the footpath last year. This was raised by councillors and local candidates and also Lucan Tidy Towns at the time. It is a place of natural beauty and wildlife as a lead into the village but there are concerns of residents in terms of slippage from the land on to the road and footpath. Most of the land is unregistered land and not owned by householders or the Council. It is in effect in limbo but is shown on old maps as "plantation". Is there any thing the Council can do to make it safer or are there Government agencies such as Coillte that could be contacted by the Council to assess?
