QUESTION NO.8

QUESTION: Councillor P. Gogarty

To ask the Chief Executive if the trees adjoining Hermitage Park estate within its remit along the R136 behind the barrier can be cut back as they are seriously interfering with the adjoining properties?

REPLY:

While the area in question is not on a regular maintenance schedule due to its restricted access, the Public Realm Section has carried out pruning works at this location in the past.  An assessment of the area will be carried out and arrangements made to prune back branches overhanging the R136  and residents properties.  Any additional information regarding the interference that the trees are having with the adjacent properties would be most welcomed.
