Cllr. Tom Doherty put the following motion before the
last meeting of Killarney town council, “That this Council seek to eradicate
chewing gum from our footpaths”.
Chewing gum is a scourge to those who take pride in the
many awards Killarney has received for tidiness and cleanliness. This problem
is difficult to manage and a programme of education is needed. Discarded
chewing gum is litter. When we carelessly discard chewing gum on our streets,
it becomes difficult to remove. This in turn makes our pavements look grubby.
The council will now erect special chew gum drop bins at
various locations around town.
