MEETING OF CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Wednesday, February 15, 2012

QUESTION NO. 14

QUESTION: Councillor B. Bonner

Can the Manager request that the Gardaí issue parking tickets as part of their efforts to address the problem of school time parking in the North Clondalkin Area?  The approach of issuing tickets has been followed in Clondalkin Village and South West Clondalkin areas with great success.  However, this has not been done in North Clondalkin.  Requests have been made by individual schools and parents bodies.

REPLY:

Garda issue penalty notices for parking infringements by post and do not attach fines to parked vehicles. This has been used at areas in Clondalkin Village.  A request will be made to the Commissioner for enforcement at school areas in North Clondalkin.  Pay and display parking is not operated in this area.
