MEETING OF LUCAN / PALMERSTOWN / NORTH CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, April 23, 2024

MOTION NO.8

MOTION: Councillor S. Moynihan

To ask the Chief Executive to clean or replace the perspex on the park signs (especially those defaced by graffiti) in parks in the Lucan, Palmerstown and North Clondalkin area.

REPORT:

The signs at the entrance to Parks in Lucan, Palmerstown and North Clondalkin have been subjected to vandalism since they were installed.  Regular graffiti has also led to the deterioration of the Perspex in some locations.  Significant efforts have been made to source alternative robust materials that would address the graffiti and vandalism issue, however, this has not been possible to date.  Signs that are currently defaced will be cleaned where possible.  If it is not possible to clean the sign efforts will be made again to source new Perspex.  Where particular signs are being constantly vandalised or in poor condition and detracting from the park entrance they will be removed.
