MOTIONS

  1. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor M. Casserly:
    “That the Area Engineer meets with some representatives from the Lissadell Park Estate to discuss the ongoing issue of parking to ensure the safety of children in the estate and on the Oxfield Road”.
  2. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor T. Walsh:
    “To ask Sligo County Council to address the road surface and safety issues on the R284 between Ballygawley Village and Sooey”.
  3. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor T. Walsh:
    “To call on Sligo County Council to provide a report and outline plans for the preservation of the old parish church in Killery Graveyard, Ballintogher which is listed as an ancient graveyard in the national monument archaeological survey of Ireland”.
  4. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor D. Gilroy:
    “To ask for Sligo County Council to install a controlled crossing at Woodbrook Heights, Ballisodare near St. John’s National School and to liaise with the principal and management of St. John’s National School, Ballisodare to agree the best location and layout for this crossing.

    To also give an update on the finger post sign promised at the September Municipal District Meeting. Unfortunately at that meeting it was suggested that a finger sign for the school would be erected at the Woodbrook Heights/N59 junction despite the fact that the school community operate a voluntary one way system at school times where vehicles access the school via Stella Maris and exit via Woodbrook Heights”.
  5. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor D. Gilroy:
    “To ask Sligo County Council, as a matter of urgency, to assess how a safe footpath can be facilitated for students attending Grange Post Primary School at the Protected Structure Bridge between Grange and Newtown (RPS 206).

    A walkway outside the bridge wall on the northern side may offer a safe alternative and would align directly with existing pathways and leave a safe passage for students and those attending the adjoining sports complex, athletics facility and soccer pitch”.
  6. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor T. Healy:
    “To call on Sligo County Council for an update progress report on the Collooney waste water treatment plant”.

    “To call on Sligo County Council to put a master plan in place over the next four years for the villages of Collooney, Ballisodare, Grange and Cliffoney as these are seen as the satellite villages in the Sligo-Drumcliff area”.
  9. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor T. Fox:
    “To call on Sligo County Council to investigate road markings and signage on the stretch of road for traffic travelling on the N16 from Dunally Bridge to Barroe as there is a dip in the road so oncoming traffic cannot be seen. The road markings on this busy stretch of road is a continuous broken line indicating that cars can overtake. As a result of this, there have been various serious accidents & potential near misses. I am calling for an urgent review of signage and road markings on this stretch of road to rectify the hazard and prevent serious injury or death”
