Minutes:

Emergency Motion from Councillor Claire O’Connor

That this committee writes to the National Transport Authority to ask them to extend the deadline of the public consultation period for BusConnects.  And further that an information session be provided in the evening when those who actually use the buses are free.

Order: Agreed.

 

Motion 1 from Councillor Paddy McCartan

That the area committee expresses its concern about the possible rerouting of the number one bus and the by-passing of Sandymount village.  In that eventuality it would lead to a seriously detrimental effect on the local community in all its aspects.

Order: Agreed.  Cllr. Costello abstained.

 

Motion 2 from Councillor Dermot Lacey

This committee requests that the heritage lamp posts on Sandymount Castle Road, Park and Drive and along Park Avenue, Sandymount be included in the painting works programme.

Order: Report to councillor.

 

Motion 3 from Councillor Dermot Lacey

This committee requests a report from the manager on the conservation status of old Dublin tramway sheds, yard and houses at Gilford Road, Gilford Cottages, Sandymount and what steps the manager will take to ensure that this unique assembly of these heritage buildings all in the same place are protected into the future.

Order: Report to councillor.

 

Motion 4 from Councillor Dermot Lacey

This committee requests the manager to clarify the conservation status of the buildings and courtyard at the rear of 3 - 5 Sandymount Green and what steps the manager will take to ensure these are protected into the future.

Order: Report to councillor.

 

Motion 5 from Councillor Mannix Flynn

That this committee of the south east area (SEA) as a matter of urgency calls on Dublin City Council’s traffic department and housing department to install wheelchair parking facilities in all SEA housing estates.  To also ensure that these parking facilities are best practice standard, clearly marked and appropriately sized.  There are many residents in our housing estates with disabilities, some in wheelchairs etc.  At present there is no visible programme for wheelchair parking or designated spots for disability parking in our housing estates or in our senior citizens’ complexes.

Order: Agreed.

 

Motion 6 from Councillor Claire Byrne

That this area committee calls on the area manager to install bike parking facilities on South Anne Street and Suffolk Street. Both of these streets are in need of bike parking as they are heavily used by cyclists but there are insufficient facilities.

Order: Report to councillor.

 

Motion 7 from Councillor Claire Byrne

That this area committee calls on the area manager to once again seek a solution to the challenges to both cyclists and pedestrians at the junction of the Grand Canal Cycle route and Leeson Street Bridge. Can the manager outline what options have been explored in the past, and why a compulsory purchase order of the building at the junction of Leeson Street Bridge and Adelaide Road cannot be issued?

Order: Report to councillor.

 

Motion 8 from Councillor Claire Byrne

That this area committee calls on the area manager to  ...  view the full minutes text for item 7.
