QUESTION NO. 14

QUESTION: Councillor J. Lahart

"To ask the Manager to provide fencing to the side of 106 Westbourne Lodge to protect from further vandalism of the hedgerow and to protect against grafitti and to investigate the possibility of additonal planting at this location?"

REPLY:

The existing planting along the edge of the open space adjacent to the side boundary wall of 106 Westbourne Lodge contains young Ivy plants, which in time will cover the wall and protect it from graffiti.

The Parks Department does not propose to install fencing around the planting at this location, however the location will be considered for additional planting to deter access and vandalism as part of the 2008/09 Arboricultural Programme.
