Call for HSE care homes in housing estates to be identified for snow clearance

Councillor Reada Cronin has requested that Kildare Co Council identify Health Service Executive care homes in the Maynooth municipal area for snow clearance during extreme weather.

These properties may need access by vehicles such as ambulances in the event of an emergency.

Councillor Cronin also called on the Council's Parks Department to increase the availability of recreational equipment suitable for children with disabilities in playgrounds earmarked for refurbishment in the Maynooth municipal district.

The politician will be raising these issues at the next meeting.
