New Garda Station Announced
The provision of a new Garda Station in Bailieborough has been made a "priority" for 2015, Fine Gael said.
The party's Heather Humphreys and Joe O'Reilly welcomed the news that the Justice Minister Frances Fitzgerald is to prioritise the new station and plans to place a notice in local newspapers seeking a site for the development of a new District Headquarters in Bailieborough.
Minister Humphreys said: "This news will be greeted warmly by the people of Bailieborough, who have been in need of a new Garda station for some time. I am very pleased to learn that the development of a new station has been identified as a priority by Garda authorities for 2015. This news will also be warmly welcomed by local Gardaí working in the station, as they have been dealing with substandard accommodation in the current building on Barrack Street for far too long.
"The new station will also be a positive addition to the wider area, as the new high quality building will act as District Headquarters. As no suitable State owned sites are available, the OPW will be seeking offers of suitable sites, so I would encourage local landowners and businesses to keep an eye on the local media for a notice in the coming weeks."
