Calls for KCC to consider making site available for a new football stadium in Naas

There are calls for Kildare County Council to consider making a Naas site available for a new municipal football stadium.

Kildare County Council has has indicated that it has no immediate plans for the use of lands for housing development in the North West Quadrant, known as the old Waste Water Treatment Plant, as further consideration to the utilisation of this site for housing is required owing to its strategic location within the North West Quadrant Masterplan

The motion for the lands to be utilised as a football stadium for the municipal area is being tabled by Independent Cllr Seamie Moore this week.

He is urging the council to make this site 'available for a new Naas Municipal Football Stadium and to seek Urban Regeneration Funds to develop it to a modern County Town Park.'

The motion will be debated at tomorrow's meeting of the Naas Municipal District in the council chamber at Áras Chill Dara, Naas, Co. Kildare.
