MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

MOTION NO. 11

MOTION: Councillor K. Mahon

"This ACM requests that management from relevant departments look at the issue of parking on the Avonbeg Rd by Bolbrook, and report on possible solutions. Whilst there are huge benefits to recent developments residents in the immediate vicinity have been unfairly impacted by the sum off shoots of a number of SDCC initiatives such as road narrowing, The Edge Café and the link into the Dodder Greenway?"

REPORT:

The Edge centre is leased by the Council to a managing company.  The organisation and operation of that facility has become the responsibility of the Company named in that lease.  

As it currently stands, SDCC do not have the right to enter that facility and make any alterations to the parking arrangements.

Further detailed discussions with our SDCC economic development section is required to examine this issue.

The Council is still examining the feasibility of providing additional car parking on the approach road to the Edge.  When we have concluded this process, we will inform the elected members by group email of our decision.
