Council under fire over delayed playground plan

LIMERICK County Council was yesterday accused of trying to create division in the heritage village of Adare over a proposed children’s playground.

A public meeting called by local parents urged the council to hand over a small part of the village park to be used as a play area.

A project team made up of local parents is pressing the demand for a playground and claim that the council has come up with all kinds of excuses to frustrate the plan.
