MEETING TO DISCUSS IMPROVEMENT WORKS AT TUAM STADIUM

Date Published: 01-Dec-2011

A Tuam Town Councillor has called for a meeting to discuss plans for upgrading the local stadium.

Councillor Larry Bane says the facility is in need of improvement works to ensure the town doesn't lose out, as the GAA looks at other pitches.

Mayor, Mary Loftus wanted to know what the GAA were doing about it, as they had made thousands of millions and local businesses can’t afford to put any money into the stadium under present circumstances.

"The GAA have to take responsibility”, she said.

Councillor Bane said that all he was looking for was an invite for the Chairperson and Secretary of the stadium committee so that they might outline their plans and allow the council to lend them their support.

It was agreed to invite the local and county representatives to the next meeting to hear what they had to say.
