A renewed move to extend the Waterford boundary into county Kilkenny is going to lead to unnecessary division and is contrary to the united efforts of all counties in the south east to develop the region, according to local councillors.
This morning (Wednesday) Piltown area councillors agreed to write to the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage, Darragh O Brien, because “the sooner this can be stopped and put to bed the better.”
Waterford County Council agreed a motion last week to ask the minister to commence the implementation of the recommendations of the Waterford Boundary Review Committee, which were reported in 2017. Particularly the extension of the boundary of Waterford City and County Council into County Kilkenny by including the entire electoral area of Kilculiheen and those parts of the electoral areas of Aglish and Dunkitt contained within the area of interest.
