Co Louth public areas will get a facelift this Summer with the €90,000 funding allocated to various projects




Senator Mary Moran has welcomed the announcement today that the €90,000 promised to Co Louth in the Public Area Enhancement Scheme has been awarded to various worthwhile projects throughout the county.
“Back in March we received the good news that Louth County Council will receive €90,000 to assist in the works in our public areas. Submissions were invited from community groups and Tidy Towns organisations. The purpose of the scheme is to allow local authorities, in cooperation with community groups, to undertake public area enhancement work before and during the busy tourist season. I am delighted to see that in County Louth there is a wide variety of projects in the list to receive funding, such as the provision of outdoor gym equipment along the Navvy Bank/Castletown River Walk in Dundalk (€21,250), drainage and ducting in the park in Blackrock to eliminate water logging and facilitate the installation of a water feature (€11,250) and other projects dealing with street furniture, the cleaning up of derelict buildings and the improvement of sinage on tourist sites. I would like to wish all the community groups well in their work over the summer months and commend them for their dedication and endeavour to keep Co Louth beautiful”
