Lisgriffin Sports to be held on Bank Holiday

BUTTEVANT

-

SPORTS. Lisgriffin, in the parish of Buttevant, will again host it's annual sports day, on this coming Bank Holiday Monday, June 02nd., 2014. This annual sports occasion is eagerly awaited, and anticipate­d, and draws competitor­s, and spectators, from far and wide. The sports will again be held, on the lands of Kathleen, and Dermot O'Mahony, by their kind, and generous permission. The fun, and games will get under way at 02.00p.m., and a good attendance is anticipate­d. Your support will be warmly acknowledg­ed.

STREETSCAP­E

By the time you have read this article, there will have been a meeting, and discussion, held between Buttevant Community Council representa­tives, and the relevant authoritie­s, notably, Cork County Council, and the National Roads Authority. The meeting will have been informed, examined and discussed the newly proposed alteration­s, to the previously published streetscap­e proposals. The main bone of contention, particular­ly with the business people of the town, was the proposed changes to the amount of parking that would be available within the environs of the main street. No doubt these new plans will be available, to be seen, and viewed, by all interested parties, sooner rather than later. Here's hoping that these plans will be able to be implemente­d, without any further inconvenie­nces, and that the proposed work will get under way at the earliest possible time scale.
