An 'appropriate planting scheme' is being sought for a region in Clane by an Independent councillor for the Clane-Maynooth Municipal District (MD).
Cllr Pádraig McEvoy raised the matter at the latest MD meeting, which took place on Friday, September 6 last.
He put forward the following motion to KCC at the meeting: "That the council considers an appropriate planting scheme between the footpath and boundary wall of Capdoo Avenue to soften the landscaping, improve water control and enhance biodiversity."
KCC told him in response: "The Parks Section will engage with the Roads Department and the MD Office to evaluate the site and explore suitable planting opportunities from inter alia horticultural, biodiversity, and best practice nature-based solution perspectives."
