Motions 9 September 2019 pdf icon PDF 310 KB

Additional documents:

Minutes:

Motion 1 from Councillor Pat Dunne carried from July SEAC meeting

Given the size and diversity of the Dublin South East Area Committee we believe that a system of more localised meetings between councillors and local management for each of the 3 local electoral areas (LEAs) should be established.

Order: Agreed.    

 

Motion 2 from Councillor Dermot Lacey

This committee requests the manager to initiate a specific cleaning programme in the vicinity of cycle lanes where they are in close proximity to locations where outdoor alcohol consumption may take place to reduce the impact of broken glass with consequent possibility of punctures and to procure specific support from the public and other suppliers of alcohol on the routes for this initiative.

Order: Agreed.

 

Motion 3 from Councillor Anne Feeney (taken with motions 6 and 16)

That this committee agrees that the speed limit of 50km/hr should be reduced to 30km/hr in Rathgar Village and on Rathgar Road and Terenure Road East.  This change in speed limit would improve the safety for road users (pedestrians, cyclists and motorists) and recognise that Rathgar Village is central to the local community with small businesses whose viability depends on local pedestrian customers.

 

The change would also be consistent with Dublin City Council’s aim of reducing traffic speeds generally; facilitating community development (as in the Rathgar Improvement Plan) and making Dublin a more age friendly city.

 

This positive change in speed limit would be entirely consistent with that in other urban villages in the City and should be implemented as soon as possible.

Order: Agreed.

 

Motion 4 from Councillor Anne Feeney

That this committee agrees that an appropriate tracking and feedback system is put in place to capture all monthly questions and motions; to categorise them as appropriate (i.e. traffic, roads, housing maintenance, by road, and other useful categorization) and facilitate a regular (e.g. quarterly update to all Councillors on the status of their query / question and other useful information i.e. contact name of council official dealing with each query.  This system / process would allow both Councillors and officials deal with queries and represent constituents more effectively and efficiently and is already being used in other council areas.

Order: Report to Councillor.

 

Motion 5 from Councillor Dermot Lacey

This committee agrees to request the Manager to review the possibility and desirability of installing CCTV at the new playground at Sean Moore Park.

Order: Agreed.

 

Motion 6 from Councillor Deirdre Conroy (taken with motions 3 and 16)

That this committee agree to Speed Limit Change from 50km/hr to 30km/hr through Rathgar Village, on Rathgar Road and Terenure Road East.  According to Rathgar Road Residents Association, “a reduction in the speed limit… is absolutely essential for the safety of the numerous pedestrians and cyclists who pass through Rathgar daily, the residents of Rathgar and patrons of the village businesses, and would consequently secure the viability of Rathgar as a safe and pleasant place to live and work.” 

Order: Agreed.
