Summary
The Chair congratulated Bantry on winning Tidy Towns awards, recalling the town’s long recovery and praising the committee’s sustained work.
On a further small point of personal interest, I want to put on record my congratulations to Bantry on winning a Tidy Towns award.
Comment on this
I remember that after the Betelgeuse disaster some 40 years ago the town was on its knees. A Tidy Towns committee, some members of which have gone to their eternal reward, has been beavering away for decades and it finally won the big prize yesterday. It is nice to acknowledge the tremendous work it has been doing in a remote town like Bantry.
