That the Manager would agree to write immediately to an Bord Gáis seeking immediate advice and assistance on the matter of the installation of the gas piping in Abbeywood and Abbeydale, Lucan. The absence of protective sleeving on the gas piping from the meter to the boiler in these houses from the time they were built approximately thirteen years ago, is giving rise to serious concerns to many local residents due to the gas pipes vulnerability to corrosion and the lack of cushion benefit for these gas pipes with movement in the concrete in these houses.

Cathaoirleach's Business            Councillor F. McCarthy

That this Committee calls upon the Manager to rule out permitting any development on the parcel of residential land adjacent to the Finnstown Shopping Centre gain vehicular entrance through Finnstown Cloisters or Priory.

• Motion 18

New Works

 

That the Manager would agree to pursue with the developer the completion of the boundary walls in Foxborough Estate, Lucan to a proper standard of finish.  Many residents in Foxborough Estate have not had their garden walls finished properly, including dashing, capping etc.  A survey of the Foxborough Estate is required in such circumstances.  However it may be possible to incorporate some of these works in the more immediate future on those gardens which back onto the Outer Ring Road where works are currently taking place.

• Motion 20

 

Correspondence

 

That the Manager would agree to seek to engage in discussions with the Management of Weston Aerodrome, the Gardaí, the Irish Aviation Authority and the Weston Park Residents Association on the ongoing problems of low-flying aircraft over the west Lucan area. Such practices are the cause of increased concerns owing to the threat to the safety and the quality of life of the local community.  In the circumstances the sole issue for discussion at the New Forum is the Safety of the Local Community.

• Motion 21

That the Manager would present a detailed report for discussion on what management strategies South Dublin County Council proposes to introduce to help alleviate the growing traffic crisis on our roads in the Lucan, Clondalkin and Palmerstown Areas. Given the increased traffic delays that residents are facing, which is causing the deterioration of their quality of life.  There is now a greater onus on the Local Authority to be more pro-active in finding solutions to the traffic crisis on our roads.
