MOTION NO. 12

MOTION: Councillor P. Kearns

That this Committee calls on the Manager to investigate the health and safety situation, particularly in relation to young children, around the Willington /Osprey area of the Poddle River following the extensive removal of trees and shrubs which were providing a natural barrier .

REPORT:

The works at this location included trimming of overhanging tree branches and removal of overgrown weeds and brambles which were restricting the flow of the river. No trees were removed during the works. The location will be examined to establish if any precautionary measures are required pending the regrowth of the natural barrier.
