MOTION NO.6

MOTION: Councillor D. O'Donovan

Cathaoirleachs Business

"That the Chief Executive undertakes to fix the sewerage situation in Boden Park.  Raw sewerage is seeping onto the driveways of houses and the ongoing issue is now attracting rats.  Residents have been given previous assurances, but the problem persists."

REPORT:

Ownership of and responsibility for the Waste Water Sewerage system in the SDCC area lies with Irish Water. The recent choke affecting one manhole on the Green was reported to Irish Water and was cleared by SDCC as soon as we were notified. In the next two weeks, SDCC on behalf of Irish Water will be rebuilding two manholes at the Glen and the Green to further address this issue. Additional works will be planned after this.
