That the Manager would report on progress in following up on my motion in relation to the derelict site on the Old Lucan Road Palmerstown (currently used as a terminus for the 18 bus) when will it be tidied up, will it be properly and securely fenced when the bus moves back to its permanent location and if the Council will take steps to incorporate the adjacent piece of waste ground and secure it from the kind of activity that recently resulted in a dangerous fire during the hours of darkness that could have had disastrous consequences for nearby residents.
To ask the Manager if any progress has been made in relation to my motion of November 2007 and March 2008 for bus shelters on Kennelsfort Road?

That, in view of the very bad design of the Crescent, Palmerstown Manor resulting in an extremely dangerous situation which got through the planning process, this Council will install "slow down" signs and painted rumble strips on the ground on the approach to this corner as a matter of urgency and in lieu of examining the estate for traffic control measures. This low cost approach may very well address the problem and thus save more expensive action later.

To ask the Manager if there are bye laws within the tenancy agreement that can be implemented barring such tenants from holding parties within the residence or consuming alcohol on the basis that this behaviour has led to anti social behaviour or a general nuisance to neighbours over a persistent amount of time? Has the Council used such powers? Over the last few weeks I have been contacted by residents in Clondalkin because of the behaviour of a minority of residents engaging in such acts every weekend?
