Motion

Councillor L. O'Toole
Responsibility:
John Hegarty

This committee seeks to inquire about the efforts being made to address the sporadic car parking occurring around Airlei Park.

Evidence has shown cars parking on footpaths, green areas, and obstructing pedestrians, including those with buggies. As this park is a newly installed amenity, a solution to rectify this issue before it escalates is necessary. Additionally, the committee requests an investigation into the reasons behind the significant increase in car usage around the park.

This investigation should include determining the number of parking spaces provided within the park and identifying the reasons why cars are parking haphazardly throughout the area.
