This committee asks if a response has been received from the HSE in regards to the questions and motions passed on this issue. This pilot was a very welcomed initiative and considering we raised the matter and discussed the challenges with the various therapy's and the waiting lists in the area at a presentation given by HSE to this committee some years back its only appropriate that a report on its findings are brought back to this committee. MEETING OF LUCAN/PALMERSTOWN/NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE Tuesday, January 26, 2021 QUESTION NO. 9 QUESTION: Councillor L. O'Toole To ask the Chief Executive to confirm if HSE has responded or committed to attending our area committee as per last motion passed, See below: COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL South Dublin County Council Crest MEETING OF LUCAN/PALMERSTOWN/FONTHILL AREA COMMITTEE Tuesday, February 25, 2020 MOTION NO. 6 MOTION: Councillor L. O'Toole The previous area committee (Lucan area committee) were given a presentation from HSE on the health care in Lucan some time ago. At that time I had proposed the introduction of speech therapists into our classrooms given my experience with speech therapy challenges and given that so many parents / children at the time had challenges and so many still do. Since then a pilot scheme was introduced by the then relevant Minister between Department Education and HSE. We agreed to write to the Minister for an update on the pilot, this committee now calls on the Chief Executive to invite the HSE to our area committee meeting to give a presentation on this pilot. REPLY: The Council did not receive a reply to letter written to the HSE in 2020. A further letter will be written to the HSE in this regard.

That a discussion take place on the best way to promote the preservation and ultimate restoration of the Silver Bridge, linking Palmerstown Waterstown/Strawberry Beds.
That the Council please attend to a problem of standing water (ponding) on the foot paths on either side of the road that extends from Foxborough green to Griffen Avenue on the Balgaddy Road. As a result, pedestrians (quite a lot of school going, with impaired walk and bus going public) are compelled to use the grass areas to avoid standing water and due to heavy footfall the grass portion turns to be marshy, muddy and slippery. Water logging is a regular phenomenon on the pathways even on very little rain.
Moved without Debate
To ask the Manager for an estimated timeline in relation to the moving of the gate at the 8 acres green space situated at the corner of Limekiln Lane and Greentrees Road.
That the Chief Executive includes the 8 acres green space in Perrystown Dublin 12 to the grass cutting maintenance schedule.
That this committee asks for work to be carried out on the Greenhills Road entrance to the Lidl site to make this a safer entrance/exit for all road users. The road markings are very faint or have completely faded away. The road is very narrow and the cycle track is not segregated nor even provided with a distinctive colour to the rest of the road. There is a lot of traffic turning into the Lidl area to access the grocery shop and other businesses and therefore an urgent assessment is required and work carried out at the earliest opportunity.
Can the Chief Executive confirm whether there are any plans to increase the level of outdoor seating and picnic tables in our parks given how important this will be during this public health emergency? Are there any central funding streams available to apply to for such amenities?

To ask the Chief Executive of the expected timeline to replace the recently burned table at the picnic area near to the lakes at the Limekiln end of Tymon Park. Can the Manager confirm the cost of the repair and would they care to make a statement on the matter?
To ask the Chief Executive, following motions tabled last month and discussions between officials and residents, if he can outline the timescale for the implementation of physical social distance measures directly outside Lucan Educate Together National School and the widening of cycle/footpath areas previously discussed from the roundabout up to the school; given the urgency of doing this during the current Covid restrictions with all students back in the school; and if a statement can be made on the matter?
That the Council carries out an audit of usage and charges for various activities within and around Adamstown Community Centre, eg gyn, meeting rooms, indoor sports hire, astro pitches, comparing it with other public and private amenities in the Lucan, Leixlip, Celbridge, Clondalkin areas with a view to meaningfully addressing complaints by residents (raised by elected reps before but highlighted again at a recently well-attended online community meeting) that the centre is too expensive to use and not accessible enough to the local community; and if a statement can be made on the matter.
To ask the Chief Executive if he will prioritise the repair of approximately 10m of footpath (between "Roseville" and opposite the Salmon Leap Inn) on safety grounds as this is too narrow and sloped and makes it difficult to cross over safely to the west side of the Liffey Bridge and indeed the Salmon Leap catering bus, the loop beside which adjacent to the water treatment plant and returning via Cooldrinagh has become very popular for walkers from Lucan seeking socially distanced recreation during Covid (there is no contiguous footpath the far side); and if a statement can be made on the matter?
To ask the Council to clarify that an inspection has been or will be carried out in conjunction with Irish Water to ensure that any water or foul sewerage connection from the planned new cemetery on Lucan Newlands Road opposite Cherbury Park can be facilitated into the existing system in Cherbury Park as planned, with sufficient capacity remaining so as not to cause blockages within the estate, given issues that already existed in the Cherbury affecting the lowest placed houses that necessitated works along the N4 some years back; and if a statement can be made on the matter.
