Motion
Meeting:
Submitted by:
Councillor C. Bailey
Responsibility:
Leo Magee

That this committee requests immediate action to clean the laneways in the Dublin 12 area that fall under the jurisdiction of SDCC and for this work to be carried out twice annually, as previously agreed. The committee requests a report from management to outline the expected timelines of this work by the end of this year, as well as ongoing quarterly reports to ensure that this work continues and that it stays on target. These laneways must now become a priority of this council's work. While it can be appreciated that cleanings did not take place as a result of the intervention of Covid-19, as restrictions are now lifting, it is matter of urgency that there be a significant improvement in the public realm of these areas. The weeds, rubbish and graffiti is a blight to the local area. There is a wealth of evidence which supports the fact that managed and well cared for areas can help prevent illegal dumping, occurring on an almost daily basis at this point.
