QUESTION NO. 4

QUESTION: Councillor W. Carey

To ask the Chief Executive if the Council can clean down the public footpath covered in moss at side allotment area in Lindisfarne Ave (alongside shop) and to consider condition of footpaths here for replacement.

REPLY:

The area in question to the front of the shops on Lindisfarne Avenue is not in charge, it is however cleaned by the Council's road sweeping contractor Oxigen Environmental Ltd once every six weeks as it adjoins the public footpath.  The services provided under the terms of the road sweeping contract include the removal and treatment of weeds.  The contractor will be requested to examine the issue regarding a build up of moss at this location to determine what action or treatment can be carried out to resolve the matter.
