Tidy Town Results

Local Fianna Fáil Councillor, Marian McDonald has said this week that there is "renewed enthusiasm" and impetus for improving our environment both through the Tidy Towns competitions and new youth initiatives, which will also tackle the problem of underage drinking.

Marian referred to the public workshop in McNamara's Hotel organised for Thursday 8th September, saying she was calling on all residents, young and old, to attend this workshop which is designed to put forward and discuss real and constructive solutions to this problem.

Marian McDonald, who has been involved in the tidy towns competition for twenty years said, she had been heartened by this year's support. "However, it is very important that we keep building upon the natural beauty of the environment of Moville and surrounding areas. I believe the young people have a part to play and with the new initiatives that are currently being developed, we can really make a difference to our environment while at the same time supporting our youth". concluded Marian.
