GCDRA Update No. 2 – AGM and Safety Issues

/ gcdra / Leave a comment

Hello Everyone,

The GCDRA now have a date for our AGM. Please make a note in your diaries for the 21st October 2015. Further details to follow.

Also, some of you have contacted us recently regarding safety and noise problems in the area caused by some of the teenagers visiting GCD. We are aware of the issue and would ask that residents keep note of every incident and call Pearse St Garda Station when they witness a problem. The Garda have suggested to us that video or camera footage taken by residents is also useful and should be forwarded on.  Essentially the message is that we need to keep reporting these incidents so that the Garda can build a case to justify a greater presence in the area.
With this in mind, you may have noticed some signs posted in the area from the management company Bilfinger. They have set up a confidential number where you can call or text to report anti-social behaviour, in addition to contacting the Gardai.
The number is 086 040 5412.
Below is a picture of the notice with further details for your information.

Hi All

 To Celebrate National Playday 2015, Dublin City Council will be hosting an event on Sunday 5th July in Merrion Square Park from 2-5pm. The purpose of this annual event is to promote play and encourage communities throughout the country to organise energetic and health-focused play activities in their own cities, neighbourhoods, streets, parks and open spaces. The event highlights the facilities available in parks and open spaces and promotes the social, emotional and overall health benefits of play for children and young people. This event features low-cost games such as skipping, marbles, penalty shoot-outs, relays and obstacle courses alongside imaginative and creative elements of play such as messy play, art, dress up and den-building.

 Please see attached poster.
