That the Manager would present a report for discussion on recent meetings regarding anti-social behaviour in and around parts of Griffeen Valley Park, attended by Park's Department officials and representatives of An Garda Síochána, and any actions or measures taken or to be taken by the Park's Department to address the issues raised by residents.

That this Committee congratulates the Heritage Officer, Dr Rosaleen Dwyer, and the staff involved in the design, production and publication of the South Dublin County Heritage Plan, welcomes the acceptance of a number of well qualified persons with placements in SDCC under the FáS Placement Programme, and requests the Manager to advise the Committee on Actions in the Heritage Plan, which apply to the Lucan and Palmerston Electoral Areas, and are proposed for implementation in the period up to the end of 2012.

• M 10

That the 3 Tonne Scheme on Kennelsfort Road be adjusted to the area between the N4 and the entrance to Woodfarm Acres and that a further 3 Tonne limit be installed on Wheatfield Road. Taken together these adjustments should ensure that all through traffic for vehicles in excess of 3 Tonnes is excluded while allowing a service route to both the Palmerstown Shopping Centre and Manor Road.

• M.8

That this Committee requests the Manager to present a detailed report, for discussion, on the reasons why planning enforcement proceedings have recently been taken against residents of Oakcourt Drive and Oakcourt Grove, Palmerston who have sought to extend their rear garden boundary walls?

• M 11

That the Manager will address the safety concerns at the pedestrian entrance gate to St. Lorcan’s BNS on Turret Road in Palmerston. These concerns arise from the availability of a dished pathway outside the pedestrian entrance/exit (an unintended result of recently carried out works at the school). Further that the Manager will agree to placing a barrier/railing to block children exiting onto the road at this location?

• M.9

That the Manager would liaise with the four schools located on Station Road in Adamstown and with Castlethorn Construction with regard to considering measures that would in effect direct all of the school-time traffic in one-way to access the schools and in one direction to depart the area. This effect could be achieved by advantageously sequencing traffic lights at junctions and/or barring motorists from making turns at given junctions at school times provided it doesn’t disadvantage surrounding residents.

• M 12

That the Manager provides a report on the Council resources being used to tackle the ongoing antisocial issues in Glenaulin Park, the measures being considered for implementation in the Park and communications with Friends of Glenaulin Park and the Gardaí.

That this Committee requests the Manager to direct the relevant developer to put in place an appropriate boundary treatment along the Dodsboro Road/Tandy’s Lane edge of the Paddocks building site as initially requested by Dodsboro Residents Association and further requested by me at meetings of both this Committee and the Adamstown SDZ steering group, given that the unfinished building site between the finished parts of the Paddocks development and Dodsboro Road/Tandy’s Lane has become a terrible eye-sore for the residents of Dodsboro Cottages?

• M 13

That this Committee requests the Manager to arrange a meeting as soon as possible with both Moy Glas Residents Association and the re-formed Castle Riada Residents Association so as to seek to agree more substantive proposals for the old road embankment for which funding was allocated under the Public Realm Transformation initiative.
