new road at woodlands
The new road at woodlands is almost complete. We are hopeful ie will be open to traffic next week at the latest and the official opening will take place as soon as possible thereafter.
Countess Road improvements
Killarney Town Council intends to close Countess Road from the East Avenue to Rockery Road junction in the next few weeks to install surface water drainage pipes. Appropriate signage and public notices will be put in place.
Fitzgerald Stadium
That this Council encourage the opening up of Fitzgerald Stadium to all sporting codes and events.
Due to the fact of our economic downturn, Fitzgerald Stadium can be used as a venue for hosting all types of events. As Killarney is a prime tourist destination this ready made venue can support employment sustainability and economic opportunity. Industrial factories of high job creation are few and far between. The income raises can then be ploughed back into the GAA locally. According to the players association GPA, there are now 15 to 20% of inter-county players out of work. In a local Kerry parish 11 young people all emigrated as the same time recently.
“Head Shops”
That this Council review the establishment of “Head Shops” within our development plan.
The planning authority has attached a condition to most new retail units requiring that “Prior to the first and subsequent letting of the proposed retail unit, the specific use type shall be agreed, in writing with the Planning Authority

Defibrillators
the Michael Linehan Heartsafe Killarney committee.
They will officially launch the initiative, which will involve an initial investment of some €21,000, on Tuesday, April 13, at a public information evening in the Gleneagle Hotel.
It will feature addresses from leading cardiologists and public health experts, as well as an address by 22-year-old Daniel O’Connell, who survived a cardiac arrest at a sports ground thanks to an AED.
The public will also be invited to sign up for a training course on May 22 which will teach people how to react when a person suffers sudden cardiac arrest and how to use a defibrillator.
