SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE (1)

Monday, October 20, 2008

QUESTION NO. 3

QUESTION: Councillor S. Crowe

"To ask the manager in view of the obvious litter problem at Killinardan Shops will he outline what discussion he has had with local businesses owners and is there any plans to introduce any litter bins in the immediate area?"

REPLY:

The Litter Warden for the area reports that he liaises regularly with the proprietors of the business at this location, that the area is monitored on an ongoing basis and is generally in good condition with few complaints being received.  There are local arrangements in place, financed by the proprietors, with a daily early morning clean up and an additional sweep of the area later in the day.  In addition, one of the shops has bins which are put out during the day and the Litter Warden is consulting with the other businesses to get a similar, additional bin in situ.

If there are particular issues relating to this location, the Litter Warden will liaise with the Member(s) and/or local residents to identify these and work towards solutions.
