MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

QUESTION NO. 8

QUESTION: Councillor W. Lavelle

"To ask the Manager, further to previous repeated requests, to expedite the provision of dog-fouling stencilling on the footpaths between Foxborough and the Griffeen Centre?"

REPLY:

As part of a wider approach to addressing dog-fouling which incorporates both the Responsible Dog Ownership programme and the Green Dog Walking campaign, dog-fouling stencils are being painted at strategic locations on pathways within the regional parks in the County. Following completion of this roll-out, pathways within local and neighbourhood parks will be assessed and stencilled as required but it is not anticipated that stencils will be provided on residential or village centre streets/pathways.
