The committee enquires about the availability of children's litter pickers, gloves, and other child-friendly equipment as part of the community clean-up materials provided to residents. In recent community clean-up activities, I have noticed an increasing number of young children actively participating. I believe that incorporating child-friendly equipment would not only enhance their engagement but also contribute to fostering a sense of responsibility and community involvement from a young age. Could you please confirm if the council currently provides children's litter pickers and gloves as part of the community clean-up materials? If not, I would like to explore the possibility of including such items in the available resources to better accommodate the involvement of young residents in our community clean-up initiatives.

This committee brings forth this motion requesting the necessary works to be carried out along the road L1018, locally known as Dodsboro Hill, as follows: Cutting Back Overgrown Hedge: We urge the council to address the overgrown hedge along Dodsboro Hill, as it poses an obstruction and safety concern to pedestrians. Clearing Overgrown Debris on Footpath: The committee requests the removal of overgrown debris on the footpath, as highlighted in a member's report. This evidence underscores the narrowness of the footpath due to the overgrowth. Relocation of a bus stop: Considering changes in the bus network, the relocation of the bus stop to the bottom of Dodsboro Hill has resulted in locals having to walk down this road. Therefore, we propose necessary adjustments to ensure the safety and convenience of pedestrians in light of this change. These proposed works are essential to enhancing the safety and accessibility of Dodsboro Hill for the residents who regularly navigate this route.
The committee is seeking information regarding the ownership and responsibility for the row of trees along Haydens, specifically between the roundabout and the end of the Old Forge estate. For your reference, attached to this motion are photos indicating the location in question. Residents in the area are facing challenges in maintaining the growth around these trees. Over time, a gap has formed, and it has been reported that the trees experienced fire damage some years ago. The attached photos clearly depict the current condition, showing an opening that has resulted in a lack of boundary between the estate and the laneway. In light of these circumstances, the committee kindly requests that the CE provide details to the members regarding the ownership and responsibility for these trees. Understanding this information is crucial for residents and the committee to address the necessary maintenance and restoration effort.
This committee brings to your attention recent developments concerning the modular homes planned for Back Weston. It has come to our knowledge that there have been changes to the original plans that were initially made public. In light of this new information, the committee requests the arrangement of a meeting between representatives from the Office of Public Works (OPW), local councillors, and our committee. The purpose of this meeting is to provide an update on the alterations made to the original plans and to gain insight into the department's intentions for future housing and planning in the Back Weston area. We believe that open communication and collaboration between all stakeholders are essential for the success of any housing project. Such a meeting would facilitate a comprehensive understanding of the changes made and offer an opportunity to address any concerns or queries that the committee and local councillors may have.
