Plans to develop a campervan park at Dundalk’s Navvy Bank are facing growing opposition, with 109 submissions made to Louth County Council objecting to the proposals.
The plans include serviced campervan facilities, a playground and mini-golf, but local sporting clubs and residents have raised concerns about the loss of valuable community space, as well as potential noise, traffic and anti-social behaviour.
Sean O’Mahony’s GFC and Quay Celtic FC have both objected, highlighting the shortage of playing and training facilities in the area, with Quay Celtic saying it has already had to turn children away due to a lack of space.
Councillor Shane McGuinness has also voiced his opposition, warning that the development could affect the character of the nearby residential area.
He joined us on The Agenda this morning, to discuss the concerns, the impact on the local community and what he believes should happen to the site.
