  2. Matters Arising

 

MOTIONS

  1. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor M. Casserly: 
    “To seek a report on recent investigations by Sligo County Council in to possible landing facility at Inishmurray Island.  Such a facility would need to be capable of accommodating licensed vessels with fare-paying passengers.”
  2. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor T. Walsh: 
    “To ask Sligo Council to provide a yellow box outside the entrance to Sligo Junction in Collooney in an effort to prevent traffic building up back on to roundabout at peak commuter times”
  3. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor T. Walsh:
    “To ask Sligo County Council to provide a footpath in Ballygawley Village across from Riocht an Si Estate to link with the existing footpath in Ballygawley Village across from the shop. This will provide safer pedestrian access but also reduce speed through the village”
  4. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor T. Walsh:
    “To ask Sligo County Council to carry out a safety assessment on the sight lines and reoccurring flooding issues at the Ballingar crossroads in Ballintogher”
  5. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor D. Gilroy:
    “To ask for Sligo County Council why the Road Tarring contractors Tar across Manholes, Gullies and Fire Hydrants but does not tar into the edges of the road instead choosing to leave a dangerous channel or drain that is a safety hazard.

    Good examples of this can be seen at Oxfield Road L3402 or the L7210-0 and L7211-0 at Ardnaglass Lower and Grogagh where the non-completion of the roadworks on these roads have left residents concerned and frustrated. They are concerned at the ongoing safety issues on the roads because of the recent roadworks being left incomplete, and at the extra flooding which is now occurring in places where it never did before.

    The gullies on the side of the newly tarred roads are a danger to motorists, because of the slope between the road surface and the sides of the roads.  There have even been anecdotal reports of incidents of vehicles losing control for this reason.  As a result of the way the roads were left there is now serious flooding along some parts of the road which never experienced flooding before and residents require assurances that this will not now be an ongoing problem”
  6. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor D. Gilroy:
    “To ask for Sligo County Council to include the roads from Drumcliffe (L3305) through Carney to Maugherow and back to Grange along the L3203 in the Winter Service Plan. As these are the roads used by a huge number of residents of the Maugherow Peninsula to get to school and work every day during the winter and for safety reasons need to be Salted or Gritted during extreme cold weather”
  7. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor D. Gilroy:
    “To ask for Sligo County Council for an update on the taking in charge of the Granary Drive Development in Grange and the Ceol Na Mara and Seaview Park Developments in Cliffoney and what issues if any are holding up this process”
  8. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor T. Fox:
    “To call on Sligo County Council to carry out essential repairs to the road at Lugnagall and Gortgrelly, Glencar, Co. Sligo as previously requested”
  9. To consider the following motion as submitted by Councillor T. Fox:
    “To call on Sligo County Council to resurface the road at Greenlands Rosses Point and to include the road between Scoil Náisiúnta Réalt Na Mara and Saint Columba’s Church and Cemetery at Rosses Upper”
