MEETING OF CLONDALKIN, NEWCASTLE, RATHCOOLE, SAGGART AND BRITTAS AREA COMMITTEE

MOTION NO.6

MOTION: Councillor W. Carey

That this Area Committee agrees that council should prune trees at the 1916 commemorative garden at Newlands Cross and to ensure that the flag pole is not interfered with by branches that may restrict the flying of our national flag.

REPORT:

At a recent site inspection it was noted that there is a limb of a tree which is growing in the direction of the flag pole and will cause interference with the flying of flags.  To prevent this from becoming a problem the limb in question will be pruned back in Q4.
