COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS
SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF LUCAN/PALMERSTON/NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, October 27, 2020

QUESTION NO. 15

MOTION: Councillor P. Gogarty

That the Chief Executive pay special attention to finally fixing the problems at address supplied in one fell swoop or prioritising alternative accommodation in a newer dwelling as the resident has suffered serious maintenance issues over many years that and delayed/intermittent repairs have led to other problems with the bathroom and kitchen with current issues including rotting timber and foul smells still remaining in the premises.

REPORT:

The Housing Maintenance system indicates that in 2020 required plumbing works were carried out in relation to a downstairs bathroom at this property and that carpentry services were required to complete these works. The system reports that the Carpenter was not able to gain access to the property on two occasions. The Housing Maintenance team will contact the tenant to discuss completion of these works.
