MOTION NO. 17

MOTION: Councillor V. Casserly

To call on the manager to detail how many section 70's have been issued in the Lucan Fonthill Area and to further seek continuous assessment on overgrown shrubbery on public pathways affecting safe pedestrian access

REPORT:

In the past three years 12 section 70 notices have been issued in the Lucan Fonthill Area. In the course of our work we would also have informally contacted land owners regarding overgrown hedges/shrubs but these are not recorded.

We endeavour to identify areas of concern with regards to overgrown hedges/shrubs during the course of our work but we do not have a dedicated resource to assign to this task. We rely on members of the public to report locations of concern to us and if a report is received we will inspect and take the necessary action.
