SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF LUCAN/PALMERSTOWN/NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, June 29, 2021

QUESTION NO. 1

QUESTION: Councillor P. Gogarty

To ask the Chief Executive to clarify that remedial Work in Weston Crescent outside no's 1-9 after the welcome installation of additional light poles will, at the appropriate time, include clearance of dead hedging and wooded areas and replanting at the appropriate time alongside the recent raking, cementing and re-seeding, as residents were informed by the contractor who came out that there were no instructions to reinstate the hedging (which they may not know about); and if a statement can be made on the matter.

REPLY:

The majority of the reinstatement works at Weston Crescent were completed some time ago. The planting required to replace the removed hedging was not available for sourcing up until very recently due to COVID access to garden centres etc. The hedging will be replaced in the short term.
