Galway Bay fm newsroom – Galway County Councillors have expressed their strong opposition to the creation of a Land Development Agency which is the subject of a Bill before the Oireachtas.
It’s suggested the Agency would take over control of local authority lands in large urban centres.
Councillors have a controlling voice in decisions on County Council lands and there are fears that the proposed Land Development Agency will eat into that traditional role of public representatives.
Jimmy McClearn, one of the longest serving Councillors in Galway told this week’s meeting that he had seen the powers of the representatives elected by the people being eroded bit by bit over the years.
