COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS
SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE (2)

Monday, September 27, 2010

QUESTION NO. 10

QUESTION: Councillor E. Walsh

To ask the Manager to tackle immediately the litter and uncut grass problems of Airton Road in Tallaght ?"  

REPLY:

The grass margins and landscaped areas of the majority of the industrial estates and business parks in the county, including those located along Airton Road, are maintained directly by the companies located in these estates. In many instances, property management companies are in place and they look after the landscaped areas. In recent times, a number of companies on Airton Road have gone out of business and the landscape maintenance of these premises has stopped leading to a number of overgrown sites and verges on Airton Road. The responsiblity for maintenance of these areas may now rest with Receivers appointed to the relevant companies.  The matter will be investigated with the Roads Department and the Councillor will be advised of the outcome.  

The Litter Warden will also be requested to examine the area.
