COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS
SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, January 22, 2018

MOTION NO. 3

MOTION: Councillor C. King

"That this Committee calls on the Chief Executive to arrange for the recoupment of costs of the cleanup of Cushlawn Estate from Greyhound Waste following the disastrous late bin collection on December 29th. The Company advised residents that they could leave additional waste beside their bins(please find attached notice), resulting in waste being strewn all around the Estate in the stormy conditions that existed that day. When the collection actually took place at approximately 4pm the Estate was destroyed with litter."

REPORT:

"The South Dublin County Council storage, presentation and collection of household waste Bye-Laws 2007, which apply to the functional area of South Dublin County Council, requires that waste must be presented for collection in an appropriate waste container or in another manner approved by the Council.

It is not possible to determine the costs associated with the cleanup in Cushlawn post bin collection on 29th December as waste is not segregated per estate / location and is removed to a central point.

Correspondence will issue to Greyhound in respect of the incident."
