QUESTION NO. 5

QUESTION: Cllr. Cáit Keane

"To ask the Manager to place a plastic 'Compressor' at the recycling bank at Tymon Park - this would stop overflow?"

REPLY

As part of a strategy on Bring Banks which was recently adopted by the Environmental Strategic Policy Committee, it is proposed to increase the number of Bring Banks and also increase the frequency of servicing each site where appropriate.  When this strategy is fully in place the Bring Bank at Tymon Park will be emptied more frequently.  This will reduce the incidences of dumping at this location.  A new type of Bring Bank Bin is also being examined for possible use.
