SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF RATHFARNHAM / TEMPLEOGUE / FIRHOUSE / BOHERNABREENA AREA COMMITTEE

MOTION NO. 5

MOTION: Councillor Yvonne Collins

That the small bin at the top of Woodview Cottage Green, as per photo attached, be replaced with a large bin sufficient to cope with the amount of rubbish being discarded, noting the footfall in the area.

REPORT:

The bin at Woodview Cottage Green is the standard bin provided by the Council.  Larger bins are not placed on roadside locations due to space restrictions and collecting capacity. The litter bin at this location will be monitored to determine if an increase in servicing is required, or if an additional litter bin is required in this area.  The issues of illegal dumping as shown in the attached photo, and the possible unauthorised use of the litter bin for disposal of household waste at this location, have been referred to the Litter Warden service for examination.
