MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE 1

QUESTION NO.7

QUESTION: Councillor J. Neville

" To ask the Manager to outline the cleaning schedule for the Homelawn area and in view of the recent review of the Cleansing Unit, if there are any proposals to increase the frequency of the schedule?."

REPLY:

Homelawn is currently cleaned on a quarterly basis by the road sweeping contractor.  It was last cleaned during the week of November 19th, 2007.  It is next due to be cleaned on the road sweeping schedule during the week commencing February 25th and again during the week commencing May 26th.  The increased level of staff resources now available in the Cleansing section itself will facilitate management of that section in deploying increased numbers of cleansing crews to a greater number of sites and a wider variety of tasks each day.  This will result in all areas of the County receiving an improved and more frequent cleansing service in the future.
