That this Area Committee agrees to reinstate the grass verge & remove the newly installed 5 parking spaces at Dunawley on the Avenue outside Clonburris school.
Adamstown SDZ West (MA2.1) That this Council rejects the Chief Executive's recommendation to make Variation No. 2 without MA2.1 point 1 and resolves to make Variation No. 2 with MA2.1 point 1 thereby retaining the decision of the elected members made in June 2026 as follows: "No significant residential development other than infrastructure necessary to facilitate the delivery of strategic transport infrastructure shall commence until DART+ Southwest or an equivalent rail service is operational.'
Reason: The lands concerned remain residentially zoned. MA2.1 does not remove the residential zoning or zoned housing capacity but provides for the appropriate phasing of development in conjunction with the delivery of strategic public transport infrastructure. The Council considers that a distinction should be maintained between zoned residential capacity and the anticipated timing of housing delivery within the current Development Plan period. Having regard to the scale of planned development in Adamstown and the importance of sustainable, infrastructure-led growth the Council considers it appropriate to retain the safeguard previously agreed by the elected members and therefore reaffirms its June 2026 decision.

To ask for details of initiatives and or policies to create a safer environment on our streets for people who are blind or vision impaired to travel independently.
I am re-submitting this Motion that I originally brought before the March ACM (Motion No. 9 copy attached for ease of reference). That Motion requested that the rumble strips that had been placed at the approaches to Ford's Bridge, Bohernabreena, following a series of bridge strikes, be moved and placed further back from the approaches. Originally the residents were happy that rumble strips were to be installed, but they were installed too close to the approaches. The noise from vehicles going over the strips, especially lorries from the quarry, is so loud that residents' lives are disrupted by it. The written response to the Motion, and at the ACM was that the strips are located too close to the approaches and a commitment was given that an engineer would go out and ensure the situation is resolved. The resident informs me now that eighteen months later, it appears no changes have been made to rectify. Can an update on this be provided please? Can you advise me if this is true? If so, can you please organise an engineer to review the design and resolve the situation. Given the passage of time could this be treated as a matter of urgency please?.
