Welcome from Cllr Stephen Fitzpatrick
With my professional experience in human resources and my local knowledge as a native of
Dalkey, a past pupil of
Newpark Comprehensive, and a student of the Dun
Laoghaire Institute of Art, Design, and Technology (
IADT), it is my goal to improve local services so that they are sustainable and meet the needs of our community.
As an elected DLR County Councillor, I hope to
Work to introduce a ‘Spot and Report’ facility on its website and a dedicated phone hotline, which allows local residents to report repairs relevant to the local authority, for example: potholes, graffiti, dangerous pavements etc.
Advocate that all local authorities publish a user-friendly annual breakdown of how their income was spent.
Open more decision making to the public, for example, through the use of county wide referendums.
Champion a binding Citizen Service Charter, which ensures Councils respond efficiently to queries with courtesy.
Promote the involvement if local community groups and residents associations, and facilitate the formal recognition of residents associations under the Local Government Act 2001.
