MOTION NO. 11

MOTION: Councillor V. Casserly

That this area committee calls on the manager to install a boundary fence on the Tandy's Lane Side of Tandy's Lane Park similar to the newly installed fence to the front of the park

REPORT:

The post and wire fencing that is in place along the Tandy's Lane boundary is considered an appropriate design reponse to allow the hedgerow re-establish at these locations. Additional shrub and hedgerow planting will take place this Spring which will be supplemented with additional planting - if required - over the course of the next three years. The 'Kenmare' style fencing on the Loop Road boundary was considered for the Tandy's Lane boundary during the detailed design stage of the project, however, the re-establishment and supplemental planting along Tandy's Lane to assist in the formation of a green biodiversity boundary was considered more appropriate given the exsiting hedgerow, shrub and trees already in existance along the Tandy's Lane boundary. To offer further clarity, large sections of the Tandy's Lane boundary are designated as 'Regeneration Zone' within the planning application, with tress, shrubs and hedgerows within this areas to be retained, maintained and supplemented.
