Boost as new stateof-the-art Duleek community centre is approved

-

Local Fianna Fáil Councillor for East Meath Stephen McKee, has welcomed the green light for planning permission for the new state-of-the-art all-inclusive Community Centre out at the GAA Grounds in Duleek.

McKee stated: ‘I am delighted with the news that Meath County Council have granted planning permission for this important developmen­t for the Community. This project is at an early stage but with the momentum that the awarding of planning permission provides, I am calling on all our local Dail T.D.’s to support the plans, particular­ly in advance of the next Sports Capital Grants Scheme this September.’

‘It makes sense as a relatively small community for our sporting clubs and community groups to actively co-operate to make the best use of available resources and funding and I pay tribute to both the GAA Club and the Athletics Club for their vision and purpose in reaching agreement to develop this project.’

‘As a parent with small children myself, it is vital that we do all we can to improve facilities and community infrastruc­ture in the area for our youth and today’s news is a very positive step towards delivering a top-class facility for the Duleek area in the near future’ concluded McKee.
