MOTION NO 8.

MOTION: Councillor W. Lavelle, Councillor V. Casserly

That this Council, noting that the residents of Edmondsbury Court Lucan have already submitted an application to the Council, signed by all the residents of  the 19 occupied properties on the Road, to change the spelling of the name of their Road from Edmondsbury Court, Lucan  to Edmundsbury Court, Lucan, agrees to hereby initiate a Plebiscite in accordance with Sections 76-79 of the Local Government Act 1946 and the local Government (Changing of place names) Regulations 1956   (as amended by Section 67 LG Act 1994) to change the name of Edmondsbury Court, Lucan to Edmundsbury Court Lucan. 

REPORT:

Having considered all the details surrounding this matter, it is considered not necessary to hold a plebiscite to correct the road name spelling from Edmonsbury Court, Lucan., to Edmunsbury Court, Lucan. As 18 out of 19 house owners have signed the petition and the existing road signage is correct as well as title deeds etc, it is recomended that the Electoral Register is amended and all the necessary utilities/agencies are informed of the revised spelling.

If the motion is passed Corporate Services will notify all the utilities/agencies of the change in the name of the Road from Edmondsbury Court, Lucan., to Edmundsbury Court, Lucan and will also change the name on the Register of Electors from Edmondsbury Court to Edmundsbury Court.
