Campaign – Issues – Media – Noel Dempsey
The campaign is moving into another phase with most of the candidates now declared from the various Parties. Personally, I have been heartened by the response to both the Labour Party and myself and the target of three seats very much in reach. On average, I am out two nights a week and Saturday mornings…

Construction Site Signs a Waste of Money
Dermot was in today’s Evening Herald, talking about the ridiculous amount of money being spent erecting huge signs around developments. An excerpt: MILLIONS of euro of taxpayers’ money is being wasted on signs erected on construction sites throughout Ireland, according to a Dublin city councillor. The official signs, which advertise projects being carried out under…

Green Bins in St Broc’s, Pembroke Cottages and Home Villas, Donnybrook
The following is the text of a letter being circulated to residents in St. Broc’s Cottages, Pembroke Cottages and Home Villasin Donnybrook following City Officials’ failure to ensure that green bins were collected over the Christmas period, as had been promised. I’ve been assured that all efforts will be made to ensure this won’t happen…

Good News for Morehampton Lane
After many years of lobbying I am delighted to report that we have now secured €99,000 towards the reconstruction of the carriageway along Morehampton Lane, Donnybrook. It is expected that the works will be carried out by April/May of next year but will definitely be undertaken during that year. As the largest Party on the…

A Long, Eventful Week
What a week it’s been! Government meltdown, FÁS in even more trouble, Labour rising in the polls (slowly but steadily!) and perhaps above all Eamon Gilmore’s Leaders address to Party Conference – it was stunning in impact and solid in content. A few digs at the Fianna Fáil Government and their seemingly pointless Green Party…

UCD & Jefferson Smurfit HQ Planning Application
True to form, as we approach the Christmas holidays, a planning application has been submitted for the UCD/Jefferson Smurfit (Smurfit Kappa) HQ site. The timing will pose difficulties for many residents, who will be short on time to respond appropriately. However, you can be sure that I will make a comprehensive submission following a full…

Scully’s Field, Milltown
The campaign to secure Scully’s Field as part of the Dodder Linear Park is ongoing and I have used every opportunity to continue to raise this at City Council level. Following the publication of new regulations about building on floodplains the City Manager has agreed to write to the Minister for the Environment seeking funds…

Education Cuts
While we have had some political success in forcing the Government to reverse the removal of the automatic entitlement to a Medical Card for the Over 70s, we have not so far been able to persuade them to reverse the cuts in education expenditure. These cuts will seriously impact on the ability of schools and…

History of Beech Hill & Beaver Row
As many of you will know, the Beech Hill estate is now more than fifty years old. In conjunction with the local History Society, I am hoping that we might put together a short history of the area along with reminiscences from some of the longer serving residents. If you have old photographs or old…

Beech Hill Community Centre
Following the recent public meeting, the newly appointed Committee held their first meeting on Thursday last and elected new Officers and adopted a work programme. No doubt they will be in touch with residents of Beech Hill and surrounding areas shortly. I want to take this opportunity to wish them well and to confirm my…
