FORMAL AGREEMENTS are needed to ascertain terms for street cleaning within John Paul Estate in Kilrush.
Kilrush based Cllr Ian Lynch (IND) appealed to the estate management team in Clare County Councilโs housing section to reach โa formal agreementโ with the West Clare Municipal District โto ensure that street cleaning is extended to within John Paul Estateโ.
Alan Kennelly, senior executive engineer in the West Clare MD said, โClare County Council road sweeper visits John Paul Estate on a regular basis. The frequency can be increased if there is an issueโ.
Speaking at a meeting of the West Clare Municipal District, Cllr Lynch commented, โthere was a sense of frustration during the canvass that people felt it wasnโt given the attention it neededโ.
He felt the street cleaning once a month to assist with picking up rubbish and assist with grass cutting would make a big difference to the area. The proposal was seconded by Cllr Rita McInerney (FF).
