Galway County Council has announced details of a new funding scheme for organisations, businesses and communities of Oileáin Árann (The Aran Islands) that are interested in developing projects and initiatives focusing on addressing climate change. €60,000 is being made available through this new pilot Climate Action Fund. Oileáin Árann, consisting of the three islands of Árainn (Inis Mór), Inis Meáin and Inis Oírr, was designated as the Galway County Decarbonisation Zone in the Galway County Council Climate Action Plan 2024-2029. A Decarbonising Zone (DZ) is a chosen area where local authorities and communities work together to reduce the amount of carbon produced by their everyday activities. By looking within the community for ways to live and work more sustainably, these zones can find local solutions to global problems. The main objective of a Decarbonising Zone is to find innovative but achievable ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The fund will support climate action projects in four key theme areas, namely Energy, Travel, Food and Waste, and Local Environmental Action. The fund is now open to applications. Councillor Martina Kinane, Cathaoirleach of Galway County Council, celebrated the launch of this Pilot Fund, which she says, "builds upon the remarkable dedication of the communities of Oileáin Árann in the areas of climate action and sustainability". Welcoming the opening of the funding scheme, Liam Conneally, Chief Executive of Galway County Council noted that, "This new fund will hopefully be the start of financial assistance to help our island communities to reduce the use of carbon in their day to day lives. The Fund should also help to empower the communities of Oileáin Árann, cultivating stronger, more sustainable and resilient islands". He added, "The fund will create learnings that can be shared with communities across the County". Uinsinn Finn, Director of Services at Galway County Council acknowledged the existing commitment and strength of community involvement on the islands, who have established a local Comharchumann Fuinneamh to support their goal of increasing the sustainability of their homes and transport while protecting their unique ecosystem. The closing date for applications to the Oileáin Árann Climate Action Fund is Friday 30th May. Further information is available on https://www.galway.ie/en/services/environment/climate/ or from Rebecca Mooney, Climate Action Officer at climateaction@galwaycoco.ie / 091 509302.

Clare County Council will submit the 2025 to 2030 Fire and Emergency Operations Plan to councillors for consideration later this year and it's believed this will recommend manning Shannon with 12 personnel rather than 15. This is based on a recent risk assessment, and a petition to prevent such a move has so far gathered over 1,600 signatures.

Shannon Municipal District councillors have expressed their disappointment following the revelation that the area's roads maintenance budget has been slashed by 7% this year. Of the €27 million countywide budget, over €3 million is from the local authority's own resources, and Clare County Council Senior Engineer Cyril Feeney has claimed this should be closer to €6 million due to construction inflation.

Mayor Claims Parking Debate "Harmful To Ennis"

The Mayor of Ennis claims the ongoing debate around parking in the county town is "harmful" to its public image and will deter visitors. Sparks flew at this weeks meeting of Ennis Muncipal District as parking once again dominated early discussions. Following a motion tabled by Clarecastle Fianna Fáil Councillor Tom O'Callaghan at a November 2023 meeting of Ennis MD, it was revealed that there had been a 9% reduction in the number of car parking spaces in Ennis over a 15-year period. In light of recent public realm works as well as developments such as the new Ennis library, Councillor O'Callaghan has this week requested an update on any further losses since November 2023. The response from Ennis MD states that the town has almost 3000 spaces and has one space for every 13 people living in it compared to one space for every 29 people in Waterford and one space for every 24 people in Navan. It also says that while some spaces have been lost due to recent developments in the town, almost 350 spaces will soon be added resulting from the Cloister Car Park proposal and the upcoming Lidl store on the Clare Road. Cathaoirleach of Ennis Municipal District, Fianna Fáil Councillor Clare Colleran-Molloy, says she's completely at odds with her party colleague's view on parking in Ennis. Councillors Mary Howard and Paul Murphy echoed the idea that Ennis doesn't have a parking problem while Councillors Tommy Guilfoyle and Pat Daly spoke in support of Councillor O'Callaghan's motion. During the meeting, Councillor O'Callaghan referenced two reports published in 2008 and 2012 which identified a parking shortfall in the county town. He claims some local representatives are trying to ignore this problem and says "if there was a deficit then, there's a deficit now".

The Killaloe Municipal District's Fianna Fáil councillors have been accused of "railroading" their Fine Gael counterparts following the selection of a new Cathaoirleach. Upon being elected to Dáil Éireann in November, former Bodyke Councillor Joe Cooney vacated the Cathaoirleach seat in the Killaloe MD. Following a decision by his replacement, O'Callaghan's Mills Councillor Conor Ryan, not to to take up the mantle, it was decided at this week's meeting of the region's elected representatives that Leas Cathaoirleach Maghera Fianna Fáil Councillor Pat Hayes will assume the role until the end of the council term. Whitegate Fine Gael Councillor Pat Burke claims his Fianna Fáil colleagues have refused to engage with him on the issue and that there's no precedent for a vice-chair to be elevated to the top position.

A councillor embroiled in a row over who'll wear the Cathaoirleach's chains in East Clare over the next few months has dismissed the episode as a "political spat". Sparks flew at yesterday's meeting of Killaloe Municipal District when Fine Gael's Pat Burke contested the decision allowing the Leas Cathaoirleach, Fianna Fáil's Pat Hayes, to ascend to the vacant top position. Arguably Clare's most harmonious municipal district became a battleground this week as the subject of which councillor will replace newly-elected Fine Gael TD Joe Cooney as Cathaoirleach dominated early discussions. Prior to his election to Dáil Éireann in November, Deputy Cooney had been the appointed Cathaoirleach of Killaloe Municipal District for the 2024/25 Clare County Council term, with Maghera Councillor Pat Hayes serving as Leas Cathaoirleach. Following O'Callaghan's Mills native Conor Ryan's co-option onto the municipal district in December, the newcomer quickly indicated his lack of interest in taking the reins just set. Yesterday, it was proposed that Councillor Hayes would step up from his position as vice-chair to be at the helm of the MD until June, with Fianna Fáil councillors Tony O'Brien and Alan O'Callaghan backing the plan. The development led Whitegate Councillor Pat Burke to accuse the Fianna Fáil contingent of "railroading" their Fine Gael counterparts and refusing to engage with him on the subject. He claims it's not unthinkable that the three Fianna Fáil councillors have a "plan up their sleeve" to ensure Councillor Ryan never has the opportunity to be Cathaoirelach in this term. With four years left in this council term, it's not yet clear if Councillor Hayes will serve a full year as Cathaoirleach at another stage or if Councillor Ryan will wear the chains for half of that year in order to ensure both representatives do a full stint. Councillor Hayes believes a "flare-up" is healthy every once in a while and doesn't envisage that the issue will be a cause of friction going forward.
