MEETING OF RATHFARNHAM/TEMPLEOGUE/FIRHOUSE/BOHERNABREENA AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, November 10, 2020

MOTION NO. 3

MOTION: Councillor Yvonne Collins

That this committee asks the Chief Executive to confirm that additional funding will be allocated in the 2020 budget to the tree maintenance programme to deal with delays in tree maintenance in this electoral area caused by Covid-19

REPORT:

The Covid restrictions have impacted on the delivery of the tree maintenance programme, however staff have resumed tree maintenance work and contractors have been engaged to work on areas where there are dangerous trees, utility services, estates that were on 2017-29 tree programme but not yet done and trees in one-off locations which need to be attended to but are not on the approved tree programme.
