Local Tallaght Councillor Charlie O’Connor recently requested a statement the plan for Scoil Santain on Avonmore Road in Tallaght.
The reply from South Dublin County Council entailed “The area around Scoil Santain has been examined recently. The maintenance regime applied to grass cutting in the area in 2020 was to allow it to grow as a meadow, meaning that it was only cut at the end of the Summer. It is not proposed that this will continue in 2021, the grass in the area will be cut on the fortnightly grass cutting schedule and any cleaning and litter picking required will be carried out in conjunction with grass cutting”.
“The condition of the footpaths across open spaces has also been examined. The Council’s Public Realm Section intends to propose footpath resurfacing works in areas where it is required, for inclusion in the public realm improvement works programme in 2021. It may be necessary to phase these works over two years, depending on the extent of works required. The draft improvement works programme will be presented for the consideration of the elected members at the January area committee meeting and again at the February meeting of the County Council”.
