"Understanding that S254 Licence Applications in 2019 and 2020 were not subject to publication in the Weekly Planning lists and acknowledging that such Applications do not require a Site Notice or consultation with local Councillors or Community and accepting that the only recourse for a local Community who object to a S254 Licence grant is to object to such granting of a Licence to An Bord Pleanala, will the Manager explain how factual verification was carried out of the information contained in an Application for a S254 Licence, S25419/08 with reference to the statements made in the Application Form from Jason Redmond and Associates on behalf of Cignal Infrastructure Ltd in relation to a Telecommunications Mast to be located at Tymon North Road. The Application states that Tymon North is a "known blackspot for mobile and wireless broadband" Who identified the area as a "known blackspot"? Was this statement verified by SDCC with other Broadband suppliers? The Application claims that the current installation in Greenhills Industrial Park is "compromised due to the developement of High Buildings in the Industrial Estate, yet makes no reference to which buildings are obstructing the service, other than Amazon, which is not in line of sight of Tymon North. The Application states and names other sites within the Industrial Estate that would be suitable but owners did not respond or not are not interested! Was this statement taken on face value or was it verified by SDCC Planning Dept? The Application states that the location in Tymon North is the most suitable site to send the signal to Tymon North and Greenhills Industrial Park yet does not give any explanation as to how the signal will reach into the Industrial Park from the street level in Tymon North, past the "High Buildings" which block the signal to the Industrial Park, in the first instance? At the location proposed in the Application for Tymon North Road, approx ten metres from the site, on the opposite side of Tymon North Road, there is a ESB Networks large Utility Box, which because of the alarming amount of Anti Social behaviour at that site, made known to both Garda and SDCC, on numerous occasions, had to be retrofitted with a "pyramid" fitting to the top of the box to prevent damage due to climbing on to the top of the box. This Application states that an Operator Cabinet will be located beside the mast. Will the Chief Executive indicate if any consultations were made with the SDCC Anti Social officers regarding this location and what provision, if any was made to ensure that this "Operator Cabinet (Utility Box) would be become a focal point for Anti Social behaviour, as in the case of its near neighbour?"

That this local area committee requests an audit in relation to public lighting in Greenhills Park, especially around and near to the laneways, including St. Brendan's Crescent for example as well as improved lighting up to the Community centre. That public lighting would be installed where the audit finds that this would improve visibility and safety. I have also requested a biodiversity plan for this park, and I fully appreciate the need to be mindful of the habitats living there. I have been contacted by a lot of residents with safety concerns. A recent approach to two young teenagers has re-engaged requests for public lighting for this park and outer areas. I believe a balance can be struck. I would refer management to consider the findings of the recent safety audit carried out in Clondalkin and presented to the JPC.
