Clare County Council has scrapped two of the most controversial elements of the Ennis 2040 Strategy from the County Development Plan.
Proposals to build a boardwalk over the Ennis Post Office Field and a mixed-use commercial building at Abbey Street had been the subject of large local protests since 2023.

The projects were officially paused by the Ennis 2040 DAC last year, before a proposed variation to the County Development Plan in March suggested removing them altogether.
Elected representatives have today voted in favour of the variation, which will also designate 250 sites and 1,200 acres for residential use countywide.
