"To compliment Council Management and staff for the tree planting on Kennelsfort Road and to ask if there is anything can be done to both protect the trees and to prevent cars from driving/parking over the soft ground around each tree.

That this Area Committee calls for the establishment of a Special Endeavour Award for Adult Literacy. The award could come in the form of an individual bursary or,ideally, as a financial assist to a local literacy service(s).
It could be run on the basis of a written piece by individuals availing of Adult Literacy Services in the County.
The award could be funded through the streams available to the Social and Community SPC specified for such purposes.
The Committee also respectfully suggests that the" Kieran Swords Adult Literacy Award" may be a suitable title for the award in acknowledgement of Kieran's high regard among Council staff and elected members,and the crucial role Libraries play in education and life long learning.

"That this Council agree to erect dog fouling signs on the Grange Road, Tara Hill and Longwood Estate. A lot of parents bring their dogs to the Loreto school mornings and afternoon and there is never a day when myself and my daughter don't have to avoid dog poo.
