MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, October 24, 2017

MOTION NO. 6

MOTION: Councillor V. Casserly

"That this area committee calls on management as part of ongoing footpath repairs in Lucan village and Palmerstown to install guidance strips for visually impaired residents along our walkways. An example of the implementation of this is Grafton Street with Dublin City Council promoting the initiative. To also further make sure sandwich boards are not placed outside of businesses outside of planning regulations which hinder access for all pedestrians."

REPORT:

 It is not proposed to install the guidance strips as described when repairing footpaths. The installation would need to be agreed with the Traffic Dept.

The request to control the use of advertising boards will be forwarded to the Planning Enforcement Section.
