"That this Committee calls on the Chief Executive to arrange to have the sides of the bridge on the climbing frame in Tymon Park covered in as it presents a danger to young children."
"That the Chief Executive update this meeting as to the progress to date with regard to the playspace initiative for the Ward. It is fair to say that the initiative across the County and most notably within the Rathfarnham Ward has not been well received by residents. Two suggested locations that from my instructions would welcome a playspace might be around Stocking Avenue and indeed this suggestion has been made by me and accepted by the Manager at earlier RAC meetings, a second suggestion would be in Glendoher Park, there is unlikely to be the same level of opposition from residents as Glendoher Park is sufficiently away from individual houses as not to draw concerns that the space might be a magnet for anti-social gatherings."
"That this Committee mandates a concerted and concentrated programme of work to remove the high levels of graffiti, including particular tags, in the area under its remit through direct Council labour and through liaison with other agencies and companies.

That this Council support the Motion calling for the removal of fluoride in the public water supply. It is accepted that in the case of Ryan –v- The Attorney General in 1965 that the use of fluoride in public water supply was seen to serve the common good. However almost 50 years later and given the scientific evidence against the benefits of fluoride in water it is unconceivable that this practice be continued.
Ireland is the only Country in Europe and one of two in the world to permit the use of fluoride in the public water supply.
Furthermore given the views of experts as to the side effects of fluoride in our public water supply that could be damaging to the “green image” Ireland portrays abroad.
I would also ask that in supporting this Motion that the saving of €4,000,000 by not imposing fluoride in the public water supply be used as part of a public awareness campaign around dental hygiene. I would contend that in the 50 years since the Ryan case that the common good has now shifted away from the use of fluoride in water and now the common good is best served by removing fluoride from the public water supply.
That this Council calls on the Chief Executive to prepare proposals, to be funded out of the capital budget and to be included in the next Rolling Capital Programme, for a modest and affordable construction programme to provide new pavilions in a small number of key parks throughout the County, for the purposes of replacing temporary containers in these parks and providing purpose-built changing facilities and meeting rooms for use by smaller sports clubs.
