ENROLMENTS
Due to the current Covid-19 restrictions on assemblies of this nature, it was felt that the safest method to obtain the views of residents was via an online survey, which collected responses over the period of a week in early June.
There was a full and robust response from the community, and you can see the results here https://drive.google.com/ file/d/15-GffN6BF7Xb-5sG5i4SkNPNSUtznXO8/view
The Resident’s Association are considering what action it’s appropriate to take in light of these responses. The full planning application can be viewed on Wicklow County Council’s website referencing Planning Application number 20298.
