Cemetery purchase is town council’s dying act

One of the last acts of Killarney Town Council has been to clinch a deal for the purchase of a cemetery in the area.

Town manager John Breen told this week’s final council meeting that an agreement had been reached to purchase a privately owned lawn cemetery at Aghadoe, overlooking the world-famous Lakes of Killarney.

However, the contract has not yet been signed as solicitors for both sides were not available to do so in the past week or two, he said.
