Minutes of the meeting held on 6 April 2022
"The Dodder Greenway is looking great and people are enjoying it, I would like to request that the features of the Dodder greenway bridges, greenway boundary features e.g, stone walls, red iron entrance markers and red iron bridge fencing used to identify the greenway and entrance / exit points to it are to be of a similar design and quality in the Tallaght Part as what is in Cherryfield, Kilvere Rd and Firhouse road - which all look amazing. The big difference in design and quality is obvious between those and the Avonmore entrance to the greenway?"
"Could the Arts Officer indicate to this Area Committee a timeframe for the installation of the chosen commissioned sculpture for the N81 Glenview Roundabout?"
Could the Manager publish a timetable for grass cutting in the Kilnamanagh area, to assist the excellent local Tidy District volunteers to plan for edging, weed clearance and general maintenance work that they carry out daily in the area.
"Could the Manager inform this Area Committee if there are plans to prune/cutback trees on the main road through Brookmount Estate, as residents are complaining that there are low branches causing problems for cyclists using the cycle lane and other branches are overhanging driveways of local houses?"
"That this Area Committee calls on the Manager to bring any S254 Licence renewal applications for Telecommunication Masts, located within the Tallaght area, before this Committee for discussion and consultation, in an effort to get proper feedback from the Communities who are impacted by these Masts, within their housing estates. Where possible, a representative of the applicants should also be invited to attend to facilitate direct questions from the Area Committee members?"
That this area committee agrees that the council erect a sign with a brief history on Irishtown Castle that is situated in the grounds of Old Tower in Quarryvale. This modest castle was constructed in 1601 by Alderman Patrick Browne. During the rebellion in 1642 the castle then defended by a garrison of 10 men found themselves conscripted into the confederate army and was lay siege to by English forces.
That management agree to provide a breakdown report on the progress of previous motions tabled by councillors and agreed by this committee, on the need for litter bins at Shancastle Shops, enhancements to Quarryvale Park, perimeter park wall repairs at Shancastle Lawns and for this report to outline what weed spraying, road sweeping and general estate maintenance works that are occurring or scheduled in the immediate period ahead.
