Claims Shannon Electoral Funding Boost Could Provide Essential Infrastructure For The Region

A significant funding boost proposed for the Shannon Municipal District is tipped to play a key role in delivering infrastructure for the region. A General Muncipial Allocation of €343,000 has been tabled for the electoral area at a draft budgetary meeting this week. The figure is still to be confirmed at a final meeting next month, however if confirmed local councillors will have €89,000 more to spend on community projects than last year. Sinn Féin Councillor and Cathaoirleach of the Shannon Municipal District, Donna McGettigan says the increased allowance would bring major benefits.
