Intimidation Sub Group Report
South Dublin County Joint Policing Committee Annual Plan (Update)
Any other business
This committee resolves that the proposed new access points onto the greenway cycle and walking path along the canal in South West Clondalkin only be proceeded with following comprehensive discussion with local residents so that the objections of residents can be taken into account.
Next Meeting: 23rd November, 2012
To ask the Manager to give an update of the water situation for football clubs at Corkagh Park. Has this issue been resolved and how much does each individual club owe?
To ask the Manager to remove without delay the redundant telephone boxes in the centre of Clondalkin Village, one on main street and one adjacent to the Laurels pub, and to have the pavement reinstated. The removal of these telephone boxes was promised to the Tidy Towns Committee as they are an eyesore and a health and safety risk as they are in very poor condition. Similar phone boxes have, we believe, been removed in Rathfarnham. This Committee recommends that the same be done in Clondalkin?
To ask the Manager his views on the following:
to acquire the lands at Kilmatead (Finlay Colley's side which includes the Old Mill House) together with the disused agricultural centre located to the south of the area, and to turn these into Clondalkin's Museum & Heritage Quarter. How many jobs would this create?
To ask the Manager if there is to be any Council support available for the setting up of a group to cater for the needs of retired and unemployed men in the Clondalkin area?
This Committee recommends that work would commence immediately on the project on the Old Nangor Road between the Mill Centre and Coláiste Chillian. Another school year has already commenced and the children attending the primary and Secondary school in the Coláiste Chillian campus are once again being asked to walk to school along a very dangerous road with no footpath. This committee cannot ignore this forseeable risk to the health and safety of those schoolchildren and all pedestrians at this location. The committee recommends that a timetable for the completion of the works be provided and that work would commence without delay.
This Committee recommends that any remains of the so called gateway features in Clondalkin be removed or modified.
That the Manager gives an update on works to alleviate the flood issue to rear gardens in Cappaghmore from the overflow stream alongside the canal bank.
This Committee resolves that the Council would engage with the owners of the six vacant and derelict properties in St Brigid's Cottages, (The Ranch), Naas Road, Clondalkin (Addresses supplied) to ensure that the problems associated with these derelict cottages would be addressed. The existence of such a high number of derelict properties in such a small scheme is having a serious effect on the quality of life of the remaining residents. There is serious littering and fly tipping in the gardens of the unoccupied properties; there is ongoing antisocial behaviour in the properties and their gardens; the gardens are in a terrible state, hideously overgrown with awful trees shading the whole area; an adjoining house is being affected by the damp and dereliction of one of the properties.
This Committee resolves that the council uses it's powers in relation to derelict properties to address this unacceptable situation.
That the Manager by way of a report to this Committee will outline what actions can and have been taken in relation to litter not being collected in private shopping centre car parks in the Clondalkin EA and what are the responsibilities of shopowners on this problematic issue?
Following my June motion relating to Clondalkin Community Centre and its environs, could I request that the manager presents a report on tackling the litter/dumping issue in the park & waterways, the unkempt landscaping, etc

“SUPREME COURT JUDGEMENT ON SECTION 62 OF THE HOUSING ACT, 1966.”
To ask the Manager to support the Clondalkin Tidy Towns group by ensuring that any future watering contracts will cover hanging baskets along with planting at ground level and in the boxes located around the village?
