QUESTION NO. 2

QUESTION: Councillor R. Nolan

"To ask the Chief Executive if anti littering signage could be organised for Earlsfort and Foxborough Estates?"

REPLY:

In general, signage is provided on a case by case basis, depending on the reasoning for such signage and the suitability of the location.  The location of the request is examined for suitability and if deemed suitable signs can be erected.  

Our current bi-lingual Anti Litter signs "Shine and Glitter - Pick Up Litter" can be made available directly to registered group(s) in existence in an area, through the Social Credit Scheme with the caveat that such signage erected must have due regard for public health and safety, and must not impede visibility or restrict traffic, cycling and pedestrian flow.  Also, if it is proposed to co-use a pole, authorisation will be required.

Alternatively requests for signage are added to the current signage waiting list, pending determination of suitability, and availability of resources for signage erection.
