MOTION NO. 18

MOTION: Councillor D. O'Donovan

That the Manager investigates the footpath repairs at the laneway leading into the Knocklyon Close estate. The new path leading onto the laneway is uneven, poorly finished and is a slip and trip hazard for local residents. This is another example of below standard footpath repairs in the area and I would appreciate a statement from the management in relation to when these works will be recitified. Please see photos attached.

REPORT:

The footpath repairs at this location have been inspected and no trip defects were identified. 

The footpath at this location was vandalised with engravings shortly after it was poured. The contractor carried out some remedial works to remove the engraving but unfortunately this does result in a poorer finish.
