Agenda

Motion in the name of Councillor Caroline Conroy

That this Area Committee supports that a suitable site be found in the Finglas area to create a Community Garden. As a council we have signed up to the Climate Action Plan and we have put into our development plan that we need to put in place solutions for our Climate & Biodiversity crisis, through nature base solutions and education.  A community garden fulfils these and much more, it is a great space for all the community it reduces stress, it gives purpose to residents who may have retired or are unemployed for whatever reason.  It is also a great learning place for all.  It increases biodiversity habitats and can help reduce flooding. 

Motion in the name of Councillor Noeleen Reilly

That this Area Committee expresses concern at the number of private sites in the Northwest area not taken in charge by Dublin City Council.  Residents living in these areas are at a disadvantage and do not receive the same level of service as other citizens. Can Dublin City Council provide a list and actions so this can be expedited.

Motion in the name of Councillor Anthony Connaghan

That the Manager arranges for an improvement of the ramps along Sillogue Road and Marewood Crescent. Some ramps were removed previously and not replaced and with the extra traffic coming from Sillogue Avenue added traffic calming is needed.

Motion in the name of Councillor Anthony Connaghan
