"Each Year the Fire Brigade are flat out dealing with bonfires due to stock piling additionally, they are a huge cost to the Council, green spaces are destroyed and there can be elements of anti-social behaviour associated with them. Many of the disturbances occur not because of malicious intent but can often be attributed to a lack of viable alternatives & our cultural & traditional association with bonfires during this time of year. As an option, this Area Committee calls on the Chief Executive to look at the possibility of hosting & facilitating alternative activities for our younger Citizens of the County 'specifically Teenagers' & to start planning to hold a pilot Halloween evening Event/Concert in the Stadium for 2022. This should be done in Consultation & engagement with Youth Groups/Garda Youth Diversion Projects; this consultation process could also be potentially used to form more meaningful engagement with youth who are otherwise disengaged from their community".
