Question to the Manager:
To ask the manager, on the issues of rate collection, how many businesses were on the Council’s books? In 2011 and 2012, how many of these went out of business. How many clients of the Council appeared before the courts pleading a rates remission in 2011 and 2012?
Motions:
To improve the painted kerbing from the intersection from Carrigageen Park to the South Link Road. Motorists have noted they can’t see the warning to keep left at the first set of traffic lights (opp. the gates of Rockboro School) approaching the link road (Cllr Kieran McCarthy)
To develop a tourist package/ basket/ hamper of goods at the English Market in association with the traders of the market itself- goods that can be posted to other countries; It is clear that many tourists especially on the bus tours don’t have euros on them and that credit card facilities would be of assistance to any tourist that wants to purchase goods. The same basket/ hamper product could be marketed online on the English Market website as well (Cllr Kieran McCarthy).
