"That this Committee expresses its concern at the ongoing confusion between the locally preferred, accurate and accepted name (PALMERSTOWN) and official but as a legacy of colonial days very inaccurate name (PALMERSTON), requests the Manager to bring forward to this LAS a costed plan for a plebiscite that will allow those involved to determine the correct name for the Village area given that that is the focal point for all sign posts for 'Palmerstown'. People are not travelling to the townland or DED of 'Palmerston' but to the business and residential area known popularly (historically and accurately) as 'Palmerstown Village' and it is only the people that live or have businesses in that area that need be consulted. Others living in Palmerstown Ave, Drive, Court, Green etc do not have an issue per say."
"To thank the Manager and staff for the recent grass cutting on the Palmerston By-Pass (N4) median and for the schedule of maintenance for this area recently published. This is very much appreciated by the local community especially the Palmerston Environmental Group who have campaigned for so long that this gateway to Palmerston and the County be maintained to a satisfactory standard?"

"To request the Manager have the surface of Mill Lane at Palmerston examined as part of the verge on the left as one travels (North) down the lane is in very bad shape and a hazard to motorists who often have to leave the existing black top surface, which is often, and tyres have been damaged beyond repair in some instances?"
"To ask the Manager for an updated report on the actions taken by the Council to have the wide grass margin on the left hand side of the entrance from Griffeen Avenue, Lucan to Hayden's Park, Rossberry and Tullyhall Estates taken in charge, and noting the poor quality of a recent grass cutting at that location, to advise members who will be carrying out the grass cutting until the area is taken in charge, and what is the schedule of grass cutting for the next 5 months?"
"That the Manager will make a report on Anti Litter and Graffiti Awareness Grant applications received from within the Lucan EA."
Notification of commencement of Part 8 process for proposed works in relation to the public right of way over grassed strip at Bewley Grove and Mount Bellew Way, Ballyowen, Lucan.
"To ask the Manager that noting the reply given to Question (19) at the June Council meeting which indicates that it is likely that new Parking Bye-Laws for the County will not come into effect until 2014, if there is any legal or legislative reason to prevent the Council requesting the Company implementing the Pay Parking Scheme in Palmerston to cease patrolling the area on Saturdays, and in effect make parking free on Saturdays, as the charging for parking on Saturdays , with consequent patrolling costs, cannot be financially viable?"
