QUESTION NO. 7

QUESTION: Councillor W. Lavelle

To ask the Manager if it is planned to introduce weekend emptying of litter bins on our villages?

REPLY:

The Environmental Services Dept is currently finalising it's work programme for 2014. The programme will include for the provision of an enhanced Village Cleaning and Maintenance Service in the County's towns and villages in line with the budget for the current year.  As part of the plan, collection of litter bins in the villages will be reorganised in such a way that they will be serviced on an as required basis each day, Monday to Friday, with certain bins in high usage areas being serviced more than once in each day where this is deemed necessary.

Extension of the Village Cleaning Service to provide a weekend service is being considered as part of the Work Programme.
