<h3>The start of construction of the much-anticipated Killarney Skate Park is weeks away.</h3>
Kerry County Council have appointed Browne Brothers Site Service to build the amenity adjacent to the Killarney Sports and Leisure Complex.
The project is grant aided by the Sports Capital Programme of the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media and co-funded by the Strategic Community Support Fund.
The local authority is awaiting on some finer points of the legal requirements in relation to the grants before work can commence.
“Kerry County Council currently await the finalisation of legal formalities in relation to the grant and will commence works immediately on completion of the legal matters. It is anticipated the skate park will be commenced Q2 2023,” a Kerry County Council official told Wednesday’s Killarney Municipal District meeting.
The official was responding to a request by Cllr Donal Grady. He is a long-time advocate of the project and asked the Council for a “contractor commencement date” for the skate park.
