"That the Manager provide an overview with regard to the planning encroachment which has occurred at Palmer Park * address supplied. I see from the Manager's reply to my question at the Area Committee Meeting last month that while the materials to enable the works necessary to resolve the planning issues are on site no works have been carried out'. If it is the case that the planning enforcement process has completed despite the agreed works having been completed, is it the case then that the residents of Palmer Park must now pursue the 'developer' in a civil type action so as to enforce the terms of the settlement? I would ask the Manager along with all the Councillors for the area to attend at the home of the Palmer Park resident so as to truly understand the seriousness of this situation, these people have seen their property seriously devalued as a result of this encroachment or put another way this Council through its negligence in granting planning on property that was in the ownership of this Council have allow this injustice to be done. This matter is now going on for in excess of the 9 years and accordingly is completely intolerable and unacceptable."
"That this Committee requests the Manager to present a detailed report, for discussion, on both the Lucan Community Initiative and the future of the Lucan Sports and Leisure Centre."

Please include reference to the training and instructions provided to staff and as to the checks and inspections that take place following grass cutting and the frequency of such inspections by Supervisors. To ask the Manager to review and comment on the photographs taken by me on the evening of the 28th of May 2013 of the grass verges along Stocking Avenue, Rathfarnham and the state and quality of the work completed. To ask the Manager to compare from the photographs provided the grass cutting by the Council's employees with that of the Management Company of the grass verge at the entrance to Stocking Wood. Poor quality work by this Council's employees is not acceptable and it is for the Manager to ensure that adequate measures are adopted towards ensuring an acceptable standard of work by employees is delivered."
