MOTION: Councillor P. Kearns

That this Committee, while acknowledging the excellent work carried out by the Litter Wardens and Cleansing Crews calls on the Manager to arrange for the removal of graffiti from lamp posts, utility boxes and walls in the Perrystown, Whitehall road and Dangan area which have become an eyesore for the community.”

REPORT:

The local Litter Warden has been requested to inspect the general Perrystown/Whitehall/Dangan areas with a view to identifying locations with graffiti.  The appropriate course of action will then be taken, i.e. removal from public property by the Council’s Graffiti Removal Crew where required, liaison with relevant Council sections (e.g. Public Lighting), communication with the relevant utility companies to arrange removal as necessary or enforcement of removal of graffiti from private property (including garden boundary walls) under Section 21 of the Litter Pollution Act.

Specific locations where there is graffiti can be directly reported to the Litter Warden for inspection.
