QUESTION 12

QUESTION: Cllr. Karen Warren

“To ask the Manager to outline the action he is proposing to take in respect of complaints concerning dumping and the grazing of a horse at (Details supplied), and given this unacceptable behaviour which is a clear breach of the housing tenancy agreement reached between tenants and South Dublin County Council, if he could outline the action he is proposing to take, and if he will make a statement on the matter.”

 

REPLY

There have been a number of complaints received in respect of illegal dumping at the rear of the area referred to in the question and the Council have carried out a number of clean_ups in this area. The illegal dumping complaints have been forwarded to the Litter Warden for the area and the Parks Department have been requested to deal with the horse grazing in the park.

The Council have also recently established a new dedicated unit on a pilot basis to address issues as referred to in the question. One of its primary objectives will be to co-ordinate the actions of the various departments of the Council to deal with these matters.
