Calls for KCC to take action concerning fly-tipping and illegal dumping on land in Maynooth

By Kim O'Leary

A local councillor in Maynooth is calling on Kildare County Council to take action concerning extensive dumping of rubbish next to the Blacklion Halting site in the town.

Labour Councillor John McGinley has said that fly-tipping has been taking place on the lands which are owned by the council and that the 'massive amount' of illegal dumping is next to the Blacklion Halting site.

The motion is set to be discussed at Friday's meeting of the Manooth Municipal District.
