MOTIONS NO. 9

MOTIONS: Councillor F. Timmons

That this Area Committee will investigate the cause of, and get a long term solution to, the continuous flooding at Orchard Rd near Clondalkin Garda station and issue a report on same? This issue has been ongoing for a number of years despite regular representations.

REPORT:

The drainage on Orchard Road is functioning fine.

Flooding at this location is caused by leaves blocking the gullies, once the leaves are cleared the water drains away.

We have requested our road sweeping contractor to increase attendance at this location next autumn
