For Cork City Council meeting, Monday 28 September

Motion:

That a review take place of traffic and pedestrian safety at the  junction of several exits onto the Douglas Road, namely Rhodaville, Briar Rose and the Ardfallen complex and that the appropriate traffic & pedestrian safety measures be carried out (Cllr. K. McCarthy)

 Motion:

That Cork City would actively broker temporary access to unoccupied/ unleased buildings in Cork City for the cultural section to use as gallery spaces, art, presentations spaces etc. (Cllr. K. McCarthy & Cllr. C. Clancy)

Question to the City Manager:

Over the last number of weeks as a councillor, I have been bombarded by signed petitions by traders in the city calling for the elimination of clamping in the city. These letters claim that clamping is seriously deterring and frightening people from entering the city centre for fear of being clamped. Can I ask the city manager what is his opinion on the trader’s view that clamping is actively turning people off from coming into town to shop? (Cllr. K. McCarthy)
