MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, March 24, 2025

QUESTION NO.

QUESTION: Councillor N. Whelan

To ask the Manager if there are any plans to replace the shrubbery and bushes removed from the back of Virginia Heights, with any sort of scaled back greenery?

REPLY:

The vegetation at the back of Virginia Heights was heavily impacted by the accumulation of household waste. To facilitate the removal of this waste and restore the area to a maintainable condition, it was necessary to cut back the existing vegetation. As the growing season is now commencing, natural regeneration of the vegetation will occur. The site will be monitored, and if necessary, supplementary planting will be considered to ensure the area remains green and well-maintained.
