SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE (1)

MOTION NO. 7

MOTION: Councillor M. Corr

That this Committee notes the significant detraction from the quality of life of local residents due to Kelland Homes' disrespect to the neighbourhood and the environment surrounding the Sundale Park Shopping Centre and to request that a letter is sent to this owner requesting that special attention is paid to cleansing the environs of the shopping centre coming up to and during the Christmas period.

REPORT:

The local Anti-Litter Warden has been requested to provide a comprehensive report on the shopping centre concerned detailing issues of concern from a litter viewpoint and if appropriate enforcement action may be taken on owners/occupiers of the units of the shopping centre and the Member will be advised of the status of any such enforcement action.

However, it should be noted that a significant contributory factor to the condition of the area stems from actions of local residents including schoolchildren littering, illegal dumping and anti-social behaviour related damage which need to be addressed in tandem with any enforcement action against local shops.
