Local Fears In North Clare Of Anti-Social Behaviour In Newly Planned Social Housing Development
Published 3 weeks, 6 days ago
Description
It's feared an unexpected social housing development will lead to a rampant spate of anti-social behaviour in North Clare.
In 2019, the local authority granted permission for the refurbishment of the Ennistymon Convent to encompass 30 residential units.
It was initially expected that the project would be earmarked for older people, however, it's understood the properties are now intended for social housing.
Cathaoirleach of the West Clare Municipal District and Lahinch Fine Gael Councillor Bill Slattery and Ennistymon Fianna Fáil Councillor Shane Talty say there are serious concerns about the location.
