QUESTION NO. 2

QUESTION: Councillor D. Looney

"To ask the Chief Executive to carry out works on Whitehall Park, Dublin 12, including rendering of the wall at the end of the cul-de-sac, the concreting and dishing of verges outside *details provided* and the removal of the tree stump outside *details provided*, as previously committed to, and to make a statement on the matter."

Concreting of verges - Numbers 24, 25 and 26;

Tree removal - outside Number 26

REPLY:

The removal of tree stumps is carried out as part of the winter tree maintenance programme between the months of November and February, the tree stump in question has been added to the list of stumps for removal on the Winter 2015 programme.

The concreting and dishing of verges is carried out by the Council's Road Maintenance Dept where required, the locations in question have been referred to that department for their consideration. 

The blockwork wall at the end of Whitehall Park has been examined.  The rendering of this wall is not urgently required and if prioritised at this time it would impact negatively on the public realm improvement works programme which is currently underway.  The Public Realm Section has no plans to carry out this work in the current year however the matter will be considered for inclusion in the work programme for 2016.
