Question
Meeting:
Submitted by:
Councillor G. O'Connell
Responsibility:
Colm Ward

To ask the Manager to review the (apparently) new policy of not lifting bins at a later date if the collection day happens to fall on a public holiday. It is a considerable hardship on many families who find themselves with a full bin and no collection for another week and no means of getting to the Civic facility. This situation if it is allowed to continue will undermine the Councils Waste Management Strategy. In addition, people need to be informed well in advance when such changes are coming into effect not least because they may leave out their bins in the hope of a delivery and find that they have been burned. Any such change should be notified well in advance so that people can make suitable preparations and alternative arrangements.

That the Manager would present a detailed report for discussion on what new facilities have been sourced by this Council that would provide the residents of this county with outdoor play, recreational and sporting opportunities that are also made from more robust materials and less conducive to vandalism and anti-social behaviour? There are newer and more innovative such fittings for parks that could be explored and provided as a pilot project in the Lucan area, including in the new park between Ballyowen Lane and Mount Andrew Estate where there are approx. 2,000 homes in the immediate area and that would potentially enhance the quality of life of several thousand local residents. Such a pilot project could prove to be successful and beneficial to all our people.
