SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE (2)

Monday, March 26, 2012

MOTION NO. 6

MOTION: Councillor M. Duff

Cathaoirleachs Business

That this Committee calls upon the Manager to direct the owners of the old Gallaghers factory to clean up and trim the hedges and verges at the junction of the Airton Road and the Greenhills Road, as their overgrown state is a danger to pedristrians who use that route.

REPORT:

The Roads Department have tried to make contact with the owners of this premises but to date we have not received a response. In February 2012 having examined the area and considered the health and safety implications for pedestrians using the footpaths it was decided that a contractor would be engaged by the Council to carry out the works and that the owners would be persued for the costs. An invoice for the cost of the works has been issued to the owners.
