2019 OUTDOOR RECREATION INFRASTUCTURE SCHEME

Councillor Michael Cahill has welcomed funding of €80,000 for Outdoor Recreation Infrastucture across the county. The Fianna Fail Councillor said that the grants greatly enhance existing facilities throughout the county. The Outdoor Recreation Infrastucture is a wonderful scheme and I am particularly pleased about the purchase of 5 Beach Wheel Chairs at a cost of €9309.60 in this year’s Programme of Works is something I personally campaigned for. This consists of 5 new wheelchairs (2 Hippocampe and 3 Water Wheels) for Rossbeigh, Maherees, Ballyheigue, Fenit, and Ballybunion beaches.
