True for you Dan, I dont know about other areas but I hear the Ennis Rd residents are “up in arms”. I could safely say that there is not one house between the Davin and Sarsfield Bridge that does not have off street parking whether it be a driveway or rear access. They just could not be bothered. We will never change the mind set into utilising public transport until it is fast and efficient. Its provision should be made a priority.
I think they are part of the lighting system installed around the millennium. There was a string of white led type lighting at that level, fluorescent lighting under the arches, and red lighting on the stone piers. Various elements started failing almost immediately and it looked totally ridiculous with a short time and was switched off. The work was sponsored by Limerick City Council and the Millennium Committee who donated £300,000 at the time…….. total waste.

The main boat club is listed but the shed isn’t. What has changed since the building was listed? I think the councillors owe people an explanation of why they have changed their minds if they have done so.
I would be completely opposed to the suggested development, it seems to me from this remove to be more about enriching individuals than supporting the activities of the boat club. The state of the building would seem to imply little of any money was spent on its maintenance over the years and one has to wonder how many boat clubs does Limerick require.
I can’t imagine that many of the other businesses in the area would be too impressed with large glass structure popping up there. It would be more in the line of the city councillors to do something about Dunnes and the Roches/Penney block. another trip to An Bord Pleanála I guess for a development on the river.
Dan,
To quote you on the Limerick Blogger 28/12/06 12:42am
“The rest of us will take the sensible course of reviewing the planning application and using the democratic process to make our objections or submissions should we have them while you send your time carping on the the comments section of someone else’s blog.”No planning application has been lodged by Limerick Boat Club so what planning application are you reviewing regarding the proposed development? I believe the Boat Club usable are will increase by over 160%.
