A member of the ‘Save Ennis Town’ community group claims the Ennis 2040 plan would be more suited to New York than to Ennis.
The recently-formed group, which is made up of community, business, retail and political representatives, has drafted an open letter to Councillors stating its opposition towards the Ennis 2040 plans.
The letter asks Councillors to vote against any motion that transfers land and power to Ennis 2040 DAC, until a better plan focusing on regenerating vacant and derelict sites is developed, rather than placing a focus on building commercial developments on riverside car parks.
‘Save Ennis Town’ group member Cora Hahessy says the current plans are unrealistic and don’t take into account the available facilities in Ennis or the intrinsic character of the town.
And you can hear more on this on Clare FM’s Morning Focus later this morning.
