Agenda

That the area committee agrees to amend the City Development Plan to change the zoning on the Scribblestown Green area to ensure the entire green area outside the current railed off area is zoned recreational Z9. At present it is only partly zoned Z9 but also partially Z1

That the Manager writes to the Minister for Climate Change requesting special funding for temporary CCTV as part of a campaign against illegal dumping in the Finglas area.

That the Manager outlines proposals to deal with the roads/footpaths infrastructure in the North West Area. Currently there are many areas where the footpaths are lifting and where the roads are broken or potholes are present. Having one of the most elderly populations in Western Europe (HSE claim) we need to ensure our roads/footpaths are in a good condition to prevent falls/accidents.

In the light of recent reports of homeless people and their families having their property being removed, in fact stolen from them, from public streets and parks, it is incumbent on DCC management to protest and protect the human rights of our fellow citizens, who are unfortunate enough to be caught up in the homeless crises.

That the Council ensures that there are enough barriers at the bottom of Walsh Road to prevent cars getting through and in particular to stop cars mounting the footpaths.

That the Council commences an intense clean-up of the Silloge Gardens area following on from the recent insulation works which has left behind some debris, the discovery of needles in the area and the poison of family pets.  That the Council finishes off the remaining footpaths and reviews the green areas.
