This Area Committee calls on all relevant stakeholders to ensure, at the earliest possible date in 2025, that the recreation area and closed playground in Belmayne estate is taken in charge by Dublin City Council and restored to community use, a long overdue restoration and improvement of a very basic amenity.

We ask the Manager to call an urgent meeting of the Oscar Traynor Woods Oversight Committee.

Local Councillors demand urgent clarity regarding the failure to comply with building regulations at Oscar Traynor Woods.

Although we are glad to see inspections happening on site, delays cannot be permitted in providing such an important social and affordable housing development in the area.

We want to know the extent and nature of the issues discovered, how and when they will be resolved and how further communication with residents and local representatives improved.

The Area Committee calls for the establishment of a new working group to explore and address the issue of horse ownership and horse welfare in the Dublin 17 area.

The Area Committee calls for the establishment of a working group to assist local sports clubs in making Sports Capital Grant Applications. The new group should seek to recruit relevant expertise from within DCC as well as the community sector.

This Committee acknowledges the growing safety concerns among residents using public transport during evening hours, particularly on the DART and buses in North Dublin.

Notes the increase in anti-social behaviour, including recent incidents of violence and assaults at Raheny and Clongriffin DART stations, which have caused distress and fear among passengers.

Highlights that earlier this year, security measures, including the deployment of security personnel, were introduced on some Dublin Bus routes in the Southside, and emphasizes the urgent need to extend similar protections to the Northside.

Therefore, this Committee requests that the Area Manager to Liaise with the National Transport Authority (NTA), An Garda Síochána, Dublin Bus, Irish Rail, and other relevant stakeholders to explore and expedite the deployment of security personnel on public transport services, particularly the DART and buses, in North Dublin during evening hours.

By adopting this motion, the Committee affirms its commitment to addressing the safety concerns of North Dublin residents and ensuring a secure environment on public transport services during evening hours.

That this area committee supports the urgent reopening of the two public seating areas on the Clontarf seafront:

a)    the bandstand beside the baths which has been closed

b)    the seating area behind the bus garage which was damaged in a storm

That the North Central Area gets an update on pedestrian crossings that we agreed to prioritise and that we also include zebra crossings.
