MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

MOTION NO. 9

MOTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

"That this committee requests the Chief Executive to write to the Minister Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government to investigate the significant delay with the ESB and the removal of overhead lines in Adamstown (St. Helens), which are preventing the occupation of completed housing in Adamstown.

Below is the developer’s response to date:

‘There is an unforeseen delay with the removal of some overhead electrical lines at St. Helens. As is now common practice, these overhead lines need to be removed and supply routed to the site via an underground network. Unfortunately, the ESB have been extremely slow in communicating a date in respect of the aforementioned and our construction team have sought a meeting with them to discuss the seriousness of the situation".

REPORT:

If the motion is passed a letter will be written in this regard.
