MOTION NO. 2

MOTION: Councillor F. Timmons

"That this committee discuss signage in the area and take on board the Tidy Towns adjudicators comment re Round Tower ''As mentioned by last year’s adjudicator, the information sign is too high of the ground for anyone to be able to read it'. That we call for a report on signage and update re signage for St Brigid's well, St Joseph's Graveyard , RIC Barracks , St Culbert's Church , Old Tower and other points of interest in line with the Clondalkin Heritage Map."

REPORT:

As part of an overall planned strategy for place-naming and place-finding, a protocol is currently being developed to oversee the approval and standardisation of features such as heritage information signage and commemorative plaques.  This is to form part of the Council's overall tourism strategy and will ensure a coherent and recognisable vision for heritage signage and commemoration locations throughout the County.  The locations as suggested above can be considered under any protocol that emerges from this process.
