The Liffey Valley Shopping Centre is inaccessible to pedestrians, particularly if they are accessing the shopping centre from the Coldcut Road. Once a walker passes B&Q heading towards Marks & Spencer's there is no footpath. Considering the Council's supposed support for the initiative encouraging people to walk or cycle on short journeys they must find the inaccessibility for pedestrians at this location unacceptable. If so, what action can the Manager take in this regard?
To ask the Manager has the Woodford Estate been taken in charge by South Dublin County Council and if not why not?
During a recent canvass of the Boot Road and Common's Road, a number of residents expressed their unhappiness at the fact that they are now required to vote in Sruleen School when they have always voted in St. Joseph's Boys School. They are most unhappy about this. To ask the Manager, how can they get this decision reversed?
Similarly, many residents of Cappaghmore are very unhappy at having to go to Balgaddy School to vote. Many of the residents are elderly with no transport. Balgaddy is most inaccessible for them and they pass the much closer St. Peter Apostle School on the way. Their natural polling centre would be Clonburris School which is in fact their parish centre. Balgaddy may as well be the other side of the world with no public transport etc.
To ask the Manager to report on the extent to which the mediation process in relation to anti social behaviour is successful in the Clondalkin Electoral Area?
To ask the Manager's opinion on the matter that the residents at 17 and 18 Boot Road are worried because in spite of the fact that work has only recently been done on the drains outside their houses they were still affected by flooding last Monday, 24th of October? Some of the residents on the road contend that the underground pipes are not sufficiently big to take the water volumes.
Confirmation & Re-affirmation of Minutes
Minutes of Economic Development SPC of 14th September 2011
To ask the Manager if he is aware of the need for a caution against dog-litter on the open green space in Huntington Glen opposite (address supplied) and if he has any plans to install a sign here?
To ask the Manager to present a report on the issue of a shopkeeper trading on the street in front of his shop at Main Street, Clondalkin. I am aware that this issue has been raised at area committee meetings before. What action can be taken in this regard and what action has been taken. Many residents and a number of residents groups have raised this issue with me. On a related matter, a resident has complained that the interior of the shop is unsafe as it is so jam packed with goods it is hard to get around it. Is there any regulation on this kind of matter.
To ask the Manager as residents of Áras Na Cluaine Apartments at Watery Lane, Clondalkin, are looking for the original fire certificate and fire drawings for their apartment blocks, can these be provided by South Dublin County Council?

That the Manager, in the light of a serious problem with littering in the Greenfort Gardens area presents a report on the possibility of installing a cctv camera at this location? Perhaps the old coffee shop would be a suitable location.

That the Manager would present a report on the hugely successful spooky walk at Corkagh Park on Saturday 29th of October. In the light of the huge crowds and long wait would it be possible to hold this event over two nights next Hallowe'en? It appears that the event was so good it was hugely over subscribed. On a related matter, what is the current status of the Farmer's Market in Corkagh Park?

That the Manager would present a report on the recent flooding at Lealand Drive, Clondalkin. What is the history in relation to flooding at this location? While the houses that are flooded have steep driveways down to their houses it seems that the water came in from the back of the houses. How is this explained? What plan can be put in place to address the problems that obviously exist here in relation to drainage and sewage.

That the Manager would present a report on the recent flooding in the Woodford / Monksfield area of Clondalkin focusing on the following aspects:-
1. Response of Council on the night. Residents feel this was inadequate though they do accept that there was a countywide emergency on the night in question.
2. Clean up of the roads, houses and gardens that were inundated with a mixture of flood water and sewage. Residents feel that not enough was done in this regard and that there is a real health and safety issue here.
3. What is the history of flooding at these locations? Is it true that the drainage system installed by the builders has never been adequate and that a new sewer was installed to which the houses at Woodford Downs have not been connected?
4. What can be done to address the problems at this location and can a meeting be held with residents to explain what can be done?
