MEETING OF RATHFARNHAM / TEMPLEOGUE / FIRHOUSE / BOHERNABREENA AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, November 11, 2025

MOTION NO.3

MOTION: Councillor L. McCrave

That this Area Committee requests that Glendown Estate is included in the next Tree Maintenance Schedule. 

REPORT:

Tree maintenance works in Glendown Estate were completed under the 2023–2025 Tree Maintenance Programme, with all scheduled works finished by November 2024. If any individual tree is identified as a concern, SDCC will survey the tree and if works are required works will be scheduled in.

The trees located in the open space adjoining the estate, along the River Poddle, are currently being surveyed, and any necessary works identified will be carried out following this assessment. A recent deputation meeting with residents indicated that they appear to be in agreement with this approach.
