MOTION NO. 2

MOTION: Councillor D. O'Donovan

Cathaoirleach's Business

"That the Chief Executive undertakes to deal with the overgrown hedgerows and undergrowth at the rear of the Delaford Estate where it meets with Knocklyon Heights.  Numerous representations have been made in relation to this area and now the situation has become so serious that there is a rat infestation in the area, which is obviously a major concern for elderly residents and those with young children."

REPORT:

The Public Realm section will arrange for the area in question to be cut back and cleaned up before the end of the year.  Arrangements will also be made for the area to be inspected by a pest control specialist to determine what action is required to deal with the reported rat infestation at this location.
