Election posters may hit town’s tidy award chances

THERE are fears that election postering could cost leading tourist town Killarney valuable marks in the Tidy Town’s competition.

The defacing of posters also continues to be problem in the area and traffic signs at some junctions, already plastered with candidates’ images, have also been daubed with paint.

Some Killarney candidates have a long established practice of not putting up posters, either inside or outside the town, so as not to take from the scenery, or create litter.
