That this Committee requests the Manager to present a detailed report for discussion on the spiraling anti-social issues at the neglected and publicly accessible dividing area between Moy Glas and Castle Riada Estates, Lucan, now many years outstanding, I am requesting on behalf of the Local Residents and Residents Associations of both Moy Glas and Castle Riada that this Council introduces proposed solutions today given the now increased east-west pedestrian traffic on these lands and the north-south pedestrian traffic particularly onto Castle Riada Drive. The continuous late night anti-social issues, the growing litter and dumping problems are indicators of this increasing serious issue.

That this Committee requests the Manager to note that on two successive occasions An Bord Pleanála has refused planning permission for 6 new aircraft hangers at Weston aerodrome, Lucan for reasons that include "......the proposed development would constitute a greatly expanded development resulting in a significant intensification of use of Weston aerodrome which would be inconsistent with the existing use and character of the aerodrome." The Board also reports that it is not satisfied that this intensification of use would not seriously injure the amenities of the area or of property in the vicinity. An Bord Pleanála concludes that the "proposed development would, therefore, be contrary to the proper planning and sustainable of the area." Would the Manager also report in detail on the planning history associated with the original west end entrance to Weston Aerodrome on the Celbridge Road?
