Comment from Cllr Tom Fortune…
Morning Paul an observation on your Harbour commentary .
‘This is unacceptable, there is massive public investment in this project. This requires a full transparent investigation. I believe there has been massive profits made from the project which is now largely a housing development , The project outcome is vastly different from the original plan. It was reported recently that the apartment block were sold to an international investment fund. Remember there were 34 acres of foreshore invested in the project at a time when the land was valued at €4 million an acre.
The fishermen are still not facilitated in the harbour despite the fact that they were part of original plan which facilitated their participation. They also were part of the meetings that took place before the project started .
Urgent Investigation is required. The contracts need to be available for proper scrutiny.’
