Independent councillor Charlie Farrelly is seeking the review in the High Court, following on from a local authority meeting last year, when two county councillors were elected to the NEWKD board. The legal action arises from the local authority meeting in November when Mikey Sheehy of Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael’s Mike Kennelly were elected to the North East West Kerry Development board.

It has cost the council almost €313,000 to operate the velocity patchers since they were bought in the middle of 2019. Independent councillor Jackie Healy-Rae claimed that engineers are reluctant to get the machines out due to the cost involved and said the council is charging itself for the use of its own equipment.
