MEETING OF RATHFARNHAM/TEMPLEOGUE/FIRHOUSE/BOHERNABREENA AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, January 14, 2020

QUESTION NO. 2

QUESTION: Councillor Carly Bailey

To ask the Chief Executive what the arrangements are in relation to weed control within the Dublin 12 laneways and to confirm whether this forms part of the agreed bi-annual cleansing schedule or whether weeds fall under a different category?

 

REPLY:

The twice yearly programme to clean the laneways in the Dublin 12 area includes the removal of weeds and this involves either spraying of herbicide, the removal of weeds by hand or machine or a combination of both spraying and physical removal of the weeds.  The condition of each laneway will determine what is required in each case.
