QUESTION NO. 12
QUESTION: Councillor E. Walsh 2009
"An bhféadfadh leis an gComhairle plean cuimsitheach a chrúthú chun na fiailí a ghlanadh sna lánaí ar fud an toghcheantair i dTamhlacht Lár?
Would the Council create a comprehensive plan to clear the weeds in the laneways of the Tallaght Central constituency? "
REPLY:
Níl aon phlean den sórt sin i bhfeidhm chun na fiailí a ghlanadh sna lánaí sa Chontae. Tá acmhainní an Roinn Seirbhísí Comhshaoil a imscaradh le tascanna a ghlanadh i gceantair níos sofheicthe, mar shampla in eastáit tithíochta, ar bhóithre poiblí agus i bpáirceanna poiblí. Eagraítear glanadh de na lánaí i gcoitinne mar freagairt d'iarrataí Ó chomhaltaí tofa, baill den phobal agus na maor bruscair na Comhairle. Cuirfear aon lánaí a aithnítear anois gur ghá fiailí a bhaint astu ar liosta le ghlanadh agus déileálfar leo i dtráth.
Glanadh na lánaí ar chúl na háiteanna seo a leanas ag an Roinn Seirbhísí Comhshaoil ??le linn 2012 agus 2013 go dtí seo.

There is currently no such plan in place for the removal of weeds from laneways in the County. The resources of the Environmental Services Dept are deployed to cleaning tasks in more visible areas such as in housing estates, on public roads and in public parks. Laneway clean ups are in general organised in response to requests from elected members, members of the public and the Council litter wardens. Any laneways that are now identified as being in need of weed removal will be listed for cleaning and will be dealt with in due course.
Laneways to the rear of the following locations have been cleaned by the Environmental Services Dept during the course of 2012 and 2013 to date.
