MEETING OF TERENURE-RATHFARNHAM AREA COMMITTEE 2

Tuesday, December 11, 2007

QUESTION NO. 13

QUESTION: Councillor J. Lahart

"To ask the manager to replace the broken trees at Scholarstown Road adjacent to Beverly Court as they are unsightly?"

REPLY:

The trees in question are Carpinus betulus “Fastigiata” or hornbeam.  These were broken a number of years ago but have since regrown and formed new leader growth.  They will be listed for pruning to restore shape as part of the Arboricultural Programme which is ongoing until March 2008.
