"Items A and C on the above list are included and provided for in the public realm improvement works programme for 2017.  The planting of the hedge at Belgard Road will be done during the next planting season which commences in October.  It is expected that the new pathway at Lanndale Lawns to Ambervale will be done during the third quarter of the year, that is between July and September. 

A previous commitment was given to examine the timber bollards at Lanndale Lawns (item B above) and to carry out repairs/replacements as found necessary.  This work will be carried out as part of the general maintenance programme in the current year.

Item D above is provided for under the capital works programme for 2017.  As with the fencing already erected at Drumcairn Parade, a tender process is required to take place in order to identify the preferred supplier and award the contract.  The tender process will commence before the end of June and it is expected that the new railing will be installed during the third quarter of the year."
