MOTION NO. 21

MOTION: Councillor E. Murphy

That South Dublin County Council conducts a complete clean up of Old Court Lane, Ballycullen. The lane has been destroyed by heavy levels of illegal dumping and fires over the past two months with reports and sightings of rats and other vermin at the sites due to the same.

REPORT:

The Council's Public Realm Section has carried out regular clean ups of Old Court Lane over recent months, these clean ups are taking place on at least a twice weekly basis.  The area does require a thorough litter pick and the district supervisor responsible has been asked to arrange this for the coming weeks.  The Waste Licensing and Enforcement Section have also been investigating illegal dumping activity in the area and are in the process of taking legal action against some of the offenders who have been identified.
