To ask the chief executive to provide details in relation to the remit of South Dublin Parking Services in relation to their services in South Dublin County Council. Can details be provided in relation to the areas they patrol and where they can issue fines to motorists?

Parking on street and off street (ie in car parks) on South Dublin County Council is controlled by the Council's adopted Parking Bye Laws. A copy of these bye laws is attached. 

In terms of managing parking services, South Dublin County Council has entered a contract with Parkrite Ltd. (100% subsidiary of Tazbell Services Group DAC) for the management of car parking services including the provision of Enforcement Service, Cash Collection, Provision of Parking Machines and the Maintenance of Parking Machine Service in February 2021. 

This contact was initially for a period of two years, with an option (which has been utilised) to extend the contract for two periods of 12 (twelve) months each.   

The contract is relative to the Control of Parking ByeLaws 2021 which apply to the administrative area of the county of South Dublin, namely in and around the Pay & Display areas as outlined in Part 1 (3) (Area of Application), PART VIII (General regulation of Parking of Vehicle Restrictions and Prohibition) and Appendix 3  (Parking Control areas).
