To ask the Chief Executive for an update on the recent court hearing in relation to the unauthorised encampment beside Foxborough as well as actions being taken in relation to ongoing complaints about reported burning at this location.

The Council has issued legal proceedings in respect of the unlawful occupation of Council lands known as the ‘The Old School Site’, Balgaddy, Lucan. The matter is now sub judicia and will be listed before the courts in October 2019. The Council is therefore prohibited from discussing the case publicly and will be making no further comment at this time.
