QUESTION: Councillor D. Looney

"To ask the Manager to liaise with the residents of Kimmage Manor Way in order to ensure that bins are regularly emptied and not left full on the road, where they are reportedly prone to being pushed over with ensuing litter in the area?"

REPLY:

SDCC 2007 Bye-laws for the Storage Presentation and Collection of Household Waste imposes obligations on the holder of waste to ensure that 

"The waste must not be prsented for collection before 6am on the designated collection day" and "the approved waste container shall be removed by the holder from the prescribed place within l2 hours of the designated colleciton time". The 2007 Bye-laws also provide that the "holder of waste shall be respnsible for the secuirty of a waste container at all times including any authorisation label bin tag or microchip affixed thereto". 

The Council's Litter Warden Service supported by the Housing Esate Officer have been asked to liaise with the residents of Kimmage Manor in relation to management of their household  waste having regard to obligations pursuant to the 2007 Bye-laws for the Storage Presentation and Collection of Household Waste.

A report on the Review of the SDCC 2007 Bye-laws is being presented to the meeting of the Council  2007 Monday December l0th.
