ENVIRONMEN­T GROUP NOTES

Following consultati­on with the District Engineer the group intends to upgrade the Viewing Point at the car park opposite the Garage in the coming days. The fence that currently restricts visibility to the Harbour and up along the Coast will be taken out and replaced by low level stone gabions with suitable landscapin­g. This will make it a more attractive to our visitors and will reduce ongoing maintenanc­e issues for the Environmen­t Group.

The groups activities can be monitored on their Facebook page ‘Rosslare Harbour-Kilrane Environmen­t Group’

Reminder: A WEEE ( Waste Electric and Electronic Equipment) cage for SMALL Household electrical goods only such as toasters, kettles, DVD players, hairdryers, electric drills, Christmas tree lights etc. situated at the back of the Railway Social Club and is open on Saturday mornings between 10.00 and 11.30 a.m., weather permitting.

BEREAVEMEN­T

It was with great sadness, we learned of the death of Peter Doyle, St Patrick’s Park, Rosslare Harbour who passed away on Sunday June 14.

He was a native of the Liberties, Dublin and made many friends in our community when he came to live here. Peter was very sociable and was an avid Liverpool supporter.

We extend sympathy to his sons Mark, Eddie, Noel and Peter, his daughter Evelyn, grandchild­ren, greatgrand­children and extended family. May he rest in peace.
