‘’I have made three submissions to the Boundary Committee on Local Electoral areas and number of councillors. I am interested to hear what people’s ideas and thoughts are on this issue , I encourage people to engage in this process upto 19th February , this is your chance to have your say , I would be concerned at any attempts to divide Clondalkin into different Electoral areas’’
- I would ask that Clondalkin made up of areas of North-Clondalkin , Bawnogue , Cherrywood , Green park , Clondalkin Village , Woodford etc. are all kept together in any redrawing of any new constituency and no attempt is made to Divide these areas as part of Any new constituency as not to isolate any part of the Clondalkin .
- The area of Saggart/Brittas needs to be included as the Clondalkin area, the Clondalkin Area map needs to reflect the constituency of ‘’Dublin Mid-West’’ to allow for a more joined public representation model.
- The Balgaddy / Foxdene area needs to be included as Lucan – Palmerstown area unless the area is changed to Clondalkin , The area address is Lucan but the Electoral area is Clondalkin this has caused a huge confusion for residents in who represents them.
The Committees now invite submissions
