Meetings to gather evidence of bizarre planning

CAMPAIGNERS fighting for new planning laws in west Cork have arranged two public meetings to collect case studies of bizarre planning decisions for review by the county manager.

Anyone from the region who has faced planning hurdles or who feels they have been treated unfairly by the planning process was urged last night to attend the meetings.

The first takes place in the Cametringane Hotel in Castletownbere at 9pm on Friday. The second takes place at 9pm next Tuesday in the Harbour View Hotel in Schull.
