MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, October 25, 2016

QUESTION NO. 17

QUESTION: Councillor W. Lavelle

"To ask the Chief Executive for an update on planned measures to seek to reduce incidence of illegal dumping and burning of waste in the ditch at the Hayden’s Lane/Hansted entrance to Griffeen Valley Park?"

REPLY:

The Public Realm Section have been liaising with the Water and Drainage Section in relation to piping the ditch at this location. The works will remove the attractiveness of the low lying area in which the dumping is taking place and assist with the removal of material should the dumping problem persist. The piping will be undertaken as soon as machinery resources are freed up from works that are currently ongoing.
