The land on the Armagh Road set to be secured

Sinn Féin Councillor Edel Corrigan has welcomed the news that land between Lennon Melia and Coulter Place on the Armagh Road is to be secured.

In a statement on the matter, Cllr Corrigan said she hoped this would lead to less anti-social behaviour in the area.

“This unsecured land has contributed to anti-social issues in the area. I have been in correspondence with the Planning Enforcement Staff Officer since receiving complaints from residents and on Wednesday I was informed the developer had ‘advised that he will within the next couple of weeks try and secure some workers to carry out the necessary work.

“This will be a relief for those living nearby, as this area has been a gathering place for anti-social elements and has been a matter of grave concern for a lengthy period of time.”
