A ruling on whether a proposed major retail development on the outskirts of Ennis can proceed or not, has been put back again

An Bord Pleanala was due to release its decision today in relation to Micheál Lynch Ltd’s appeal to construct a major retail unit with Tesco as the anchor tenant on a site on the Clare Road opposite Saint Flannan’s College.
It was originally rejected by Ennis Town Council in January.
The developers say the project would create up to 500 jobs but local business people fear it would take away trade from the town centre.
An Bord Pleanala was expected to rule on the matter in June but that was delayed until this month – however a decision now won’t be made for at least another fortnight.
