QUESTION NO. 4

QUESTION: Councillor M. Duff

"To ask the Chief Executive if he would make a report on progress, if any, regarding the landscaping and footpath maintenance works on the green area, bounded by St Aongus Green, Park, Road and also Tymon North Road, as agreed and discussed at the Deputation meeting with residents from the St Aongus and Tymon North Estates and indicate a timeline for completion of such works." 

REPLY:

The Council's Public Realm section is making arrangements to treat the grass encroachment onto footpaths through the open space at St Aongus Green in the coming weeks. The areas of encroachment will in the first instance be sprayed to kill the grass growth and once the grass has died off the encroaching soil will be removed. It is expected that this work will be completed by the end of July. It is also proposed that the footpath referred to, where anti-socaial behaviour occurs, will be removed as agreed and that this area will be soiled over and taken into the open space. It is expected that this work will be carried out over the summer months and that it should be completed by the end of August.
