MOTION NO.4

MOTION: Councillor K. Mahon

"In advance of a Headed Item on the public realm at Whitestown Stream in West Tallaght at the March Area Committee this committee agrees that we wish to see action at the identified Jobstown stretch of the stream regarding vehicle access, improvement of the public realm, lighting, and effective waste management policies. We ask that representatives from all necessary Departments are available for the March Area Committee discussion. We encourage all Tallaght Councillors to discuss and amend this motion to form identifiable parameters for the March discussion."

REPORT:

A commitment was given at the January meeting of the Tallaght area committee that a headed item report would be presented to the March meeting of the ACM in relation to the problems associated with the Whitestown Stream in Jobstown.  It is expected that the report to the March meeting will be an initial report to outline the issues identified as requiring a solution.  This in turn will lead to the presentation of further reports on the matter in future months to present proposed solutions to issues and to monitor the progress in implementing these.  Input from other stakeholder departments and sections will be sought in the matter and their views will be represented in the report.
