I was at the launch of the Kildare Community Biodiversity Project on behalf of Allenwood Tidy Towns last night. Well done to County Kildare Heritage Office for organising this massive initiative. We will be writing to local schools and groups to invite them to the training in the coming weeks. Interested individuals are welcome to attend also. Please keep…

I raised the issue of faded road markings at Clocha Rince National School, the open roof on the fire damaged house in Kilmeague, public lights in Allenwood village, and the latest on Allenwood Playground, at the council meeting last Friday. Listen to me discussing these items on KFM with Clem Ryan at https://soundcloud.com/kfmra…/kildare-today-11-02-20-hour-2… (43 minutes in)
A lot of lights were repaired in Lios An Rí, Clogherinkoe this week, following my representations to Kildare County Council. My thanks to the residents for bringing the issue to my attention. Together with Martin Heydon TD, Bernard Durkan TD and Senator Anthony Lawlor, your Fine Gael team is looking after the parish of Balyna and getting things done.
I want to clarify that some voters that were previously in Kildare North have been moved to Kildare South. Derrinturn, Carbury Village and Clogherinkoe are all now part of Kildare South. Please see the map provided by Kildare County Council at http://kildare.ie/…/Regist…/ConstituencyBoundaryChangeA4.pdf I also have a map online at https://b-wy.se/kildare-south Some residents will be receiving letters from…
The constituencies for the next General Election were reviewed and will be updated for 2020. Kildare South is now extended right up to the north west of the county. In addition some areas of West Kildare return to the constituency along with some parts of Laois and Offaly. I have created an updated map of…
The rollout of the National Broadband Plan will include areas that are not currently covered by commercial operators, such as Eir. Please search using your Eircode on the map at https://b-wy.se/nbp, if your home does not have high speed broadband at the moment. If you are in an amber area, then your home will be covered…
I reported four faulty lights in Ard Carraig, Clogherinkoe, a few weeks back. There are a lot of young families in this estate and the area is much safer now in the dark evenings with the new LED lights. This was brought to my attention by a member of the Balyna Fine Gael branch. If…
My family and I attended the official opening of Jack’s Track at Clogherinkoe GFC last weekend. Named in honour of Jack Conlan, who was by all accounts, the ultimate volunteer for his club. Volunteers are at the heart of rural communities, and this is the second sports club I’ve seen in recent weeks to recognise a life…
At the October full council meeting today, I proposed that the council make a bye-law to set the speed limit at all primary and secondary schools in the county to 30 kilometres per hour, at all times of the day. At Killina National School, the nearest school to the entrance of the Drehid Waste Management…
A lot of Residents Associations are getting in touch with me over problems with their estates. Developers are dragging their heels and failing to finish off estates, once their profits have been made. It’s not fair on the people paying their mortgages and rent, to have to fight them alone. The bond system is meant…
