Politician lodges plan for houses despite flood risk
Last year Fine Gael’s Cllr Tony Mulqueen was photographed paddling a dinghy to his family’s home at Cappahard on the Tulla Road after water levels in the town reached over 2.5 feet. In spite of flood protection measures and sandbagging his house was damaged.
Mr Mulqueen has lodged an application to secure outline planning permission for the five detached houses adjacent to his home in a residential area.
