@nanakando @SweetmanPeter @frankmcdonald60 Yes, that seems to be the way they operate. It seems clear that they want; larger building, and to remove the no parking on-site provision.

Note: A complaint has been made about this raw sewage discharge into the River Dinin in Castlecomer, we will update you when we get a response.

We ask people to walk their local river areas, while there is low water, to help find illegal discharges, so they can be reported.

Raw sewage being discharged into the River Dinin (Nore) at Castlecomer, Co Kilkenny, yesterday. These Atlantic salmon parr are trying to survive in this grossly polluted habitat. Severe agricultural pollution was also recorded. This is the River Barrow and River Nore SAC.

This is a hugely significant win for @RightToKnowIE where a wind farm company must now deal with requests for environmental information from the public.

The Raheenleagh wind farm is a joint venture between forestry agency Coillte and the ESB

As John McGuinness commented during his time as chair of the PAC, Local authority spending should be subject to PAC examination and inquiry. 3/

Here is part 1 of Noteworthy ’s investigation into the CAS bridge. Parts two and three will follow later this week. #saveKilkenny Article: https://t.co/9eFYHDo7jc

[#savekilkenny @SaveKilkenny]

We'll do a full statement at the end of the series but Noteworthy shouldn't have to be the ones to raise the very real issues identified in Part 1 of this investigation. 2/

More planning madness in Kilkenny.

Today was the final date for submissions on the expansion of the Kilkenny Inn Hotel, on Vicar Street.

Basically the plan is to reduce the number of car parking spaces currently available, yet double its size, and expand it onto the CAS. 1/
