Petition supports development of two supermarkets
Objections by independent grocers’ body RGDATA to the plans have been criticised by local public representatives. The petition is being dispatched to An Bord Pleanála in advance of a decision by the appeals board that will determine whether or not Dunnes Stores and Tesco go ahead with new outlets, both on sites at the Limerick entrance to the town.
The town council originally granted planning permission for the multi-million euro developments, but to the anger of the community RGDATA lodged separate appeals against both decisions with Bord Pleanála.
