Letter pleading for support for Sports Development in Loughrea sent to Minister

A letter, signed by local councillors, pleading for backing for the development of a major sports facility in Loughrea is being given to Local Government Minister Alan Dillon.

The Loughrea Sports and Community Development Group is seeking to develop a multi-use, multi-sport and recreation facility.

However, plans have been rejected due to zoning issues with the land proposed between the Bullaun and Kinculla roads.

Hundreds of people turned out at a recent protest in the town over their struggles to get new sports facilities.

Loughrea area Fianna Fáil councillor Shane Curley says the letter outlines their case, which is well-supported in the community:
