6 years after Keith Martin began campaigning for the replanting of the Northwoods area Westport Town Council confirms it will begin works in the area in May. Cllr Keith Martin has also welcomed the news that the replanting of the Northwoods will go ahead this November. Cllr Martin says he "can assure the council that there has been full consultation on this matter. I spent the day at the Leisure Park for the consultation meeting and I serve as the Pairc Na Coille Representative on the Northwoods Neighbouring Consultation Committee. "It is over 6 years since I took up a petition to have the Northwoods replanted. And I welcome the commitment made here today to begin works in May and June and for planting to begin in November at the latest. "The upgrading of the pavements will be most welcome as will any appropriate signage. What was made clear to me at the consultation in November 2005 was that no-one wants any more furniture in the woods. "Benches and seating are being used as locations for anti social behaviour. The general consensus is that it should be removed altogether and not expanded on. "I want to note the work put into this project by Simon Wall and Peter Gill and I look forward to the conclusion of this on-going sore-point by the end of this year." read full story / add a comment
