ADARE Community Council is calling on the Minister for the Environment to investigate the decision of elected members of Limerick County Council to rezone more than 120 acres of agricultural land near Adare for housing.

LIMERICK politicians last night voted through one of the most controversial land zonings outside of Dublin in the face of dire warnings of the legal risk they were taking for themselves and Limerick County Council.

CONCERNED residents from Adare make a last- ditch effort today to try and persuade councillors not to rezone farmland for housing near the village.
