MEETING OF CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Wednesday, October 19, 2016

MOTION NO. 10

MOTION: Councillor B. Bonner

"This committee agrees that the practice of displaying items for sale on the pavement and suspended from from the shopfront as seen at Super Savers, Main Street , Clondalkin, is not in keeping with the street and asks the chief executive to investigate whether this type of display is in line with the planning regulations governing such premises." 

REPORT:

Staff in the Traffic Section spoke to the owner of this shop and another store  in Clondalkin village recently and requested them to remove goods that were impinging onto the public footpath along the shopfront as it was hazardous and unsightly.

A follow up inspection will be carried out to see if the owners are complying with this instruction.  Action under Section 71 of the Roads Act does not extend to dealing with items suspended from the shopfront.
