Culleenamore and Sligo County Council plans for new boundary fence.
October 10, 2007 | Leave a Comment
From the Ocean FM website this morning :
Sligo County Councillors have requested senior executives of the council to provide them with a full report on the Culleenamore controversy by the November meeting of Sligo County Council.
The decision was taken by councillors who attended last night’s meeting of the Culleenamore community group, after the group presented the councillors with their case.
The controversy surrounds the Council’s plan to build a fence at the beach near Strandhill.
Objectors do not want this fence because they say it would block a public right of way that is part of the original road from Ballisodare to Sligo via Strandhill and a popular public amenity.
A spokesperson for the Culleenamore Preservation Group, Seamus May says he hopes this case will not have to go to court..

Gardai on Golf Club/National School Road
October 1, 2007 | Leave a Comment
Bit of a monday morning surprise. Doing my normal school drop just before 9am, swung onto the Golf club road - there it was - squad car, lights-a-flashing.
Is this a first? If it was a traffic calming measure, then fair enough. But I did see licence documents being examined.
This seems pretty heavy handed…
