Agenda

To ask the Manager to close off the laneway in Berryfield Drive. Residents have been campaigning for this for years.  It is consistently a drop off point for illegal dumping on a large scale. Can we look at the options so this area is not a constant nuisance to residents.

To ask the Manager to plant Irish native trees on two particular sites in Finglas, Dunsink Landfill and the site where Finglaswood stream flows under, between Gortmore and Barnamore Estates. This will not cost the Council anything because I have secured enough trees for both sites from an NGO. There is also funding available from Government under the woodlands native creation. These sites cannot be built on so this would be an ideal solution to using these lands and help in the recovery of biodiversity, slow water going into the sewage system and filter the water and also improve air quality. They can also then be used as a public amenity.

That this Area Committee requests a meeting with the Dublin City Council Planning Department to discuss the concerns of residents about the proposed variation of the Jamestown lands to Z14.

That the serious lack of bins in Ballymun is addressed and some of the new belly bins are ordered for Balbutcher Lane, Sillogue Road, Shangan Road and Coultry Avenue.
