Killarney

By Sean Moriarty
Plans for a skate park in Killarney town are rolling into place and will go to a public consultation within the next week, according to senior Kerry County Council officials.
Plans are at an advanced stage to build the park in land adjacent to Killarney Sports and Leisure Centre.
Details of the public consultation will be released by Kerry County Council next Thursday.
It’s not certain what format the consultation will use – full details will be published in next week’s Killarney Advertiser – but recent similar events, like the public consultation for Killarney’s cycle paths, took place online.
The project has been pushed by Cllr Donal Grady and he welcomed progress on the new park.
“We are delighted that KDYS have come on board too as we needed a sort of ‘parent’ or ‘management’ company,” Cllr O’Grady told the Killarney Advertiser.
“There is also a young committee in place to run it.”
