The following Emergency Motion to the Area Manager was tabled.

 

 

Emergency Motion in the Name of Cllr. Janet Horner

 

This Area Committee calls an emergency meeting with waste management, city recovery and area staff and to follow up with Minister Ossian Smyth about street cleaning and waste management in the Central Area. The streets are now very commonly littered, dirty and unhygienic, which is even more problematic during a prolonged dry spell. This committee is seeking more urgency in identifying, prioritising and immediately responding to litter and unclenliness across the city and appropriate collaboration with Dublin Town, businesses and waste management companies to dramatically improve the conditions of our streets, particularly during the summer months when people are trying to enjoy the outdoor amenities of the city more.

 

 

ORDER:  Order.

 

The following motions to the Area Managers were tabled.

 

NORTH INNER CITY

 

Item 1

 

Motion in the name of Councillor Janet Horner

 

This committee calls on the Department of Education to open up their grounds on Marlborough Street throughout the summer months, either on a regular basis or in collaboration with Dublin Town and the local area office to organise family fun days in recognition of the importance of open spaces in the city centre area.

 

ORDER:  Agreed.

 

 

Item 2

 

Motion in the name of Councillor Janet Horner

This committee calls for the Central Area office, Parks and the North Central Area office to work together to restore and maintain the pitch quality at the Alfie Byrne Road pitches.

ORDER:  Agreed.

Item 3

 

Motion in the name of Councillor Janet Horner

 

This committee calls for a pilot education and public engagement project on the street names in the Dublin Central area, starting with an initial small group of streets, aiming to educate the public on the origins and evolution of commonly known street names and the movements and eras that they emerged from and provide another way to engage with the history of the city

 

ORDER:  Agreed.

 

Item 4

 

Motion in the name of Councillor Nial Ring

 

That this committee instructs the Area Manager to investigate the possibility of CCTV cameras being installed on Belvedere Place with the specific of deterring the continual illegal dumping on the street and, in particular, outside the Georgian Montessori school at number 40.

 

ORDER:  Agreed.

 

Item 5

 

Motion in the name of Councillor Nial Ring

 

Further to my Motion to the CAC in October 2022, and given the huge disquiet in the area as the realisation sets in that it is proposed to permanently remove the inward bound bus stop on the North Strand Road at the corner of Strandville Avenue (No 617 already removed) and the outward bound bus stop on North Strand Road between Charleville Avenue and Bayview Avenue (No. 4384 still there), this committee requests DCC engineers and the Clontarf to City centre Project team to reexamine this decision and, using their undoubted professional skills to come up with an innovative yet practical  engineering solution which will result in the retention  ...  view the full minutes text for item 17.
