Stop the Water!

Two very different approaches to the use of their water resources….Two very different councils……

An Irish Town Planner’s Blog reports on Donegal County Council’s plans to trial waterpower-street lighting, using power generated from a hydroelectric device on the River Finn. Currently €50,000 has been set aside for it.

The same blog further reports about Kenmare’s plans to develop a Cultural icon in the town to rival the Sydney Opera house…Currently looking for some sponsors but roughly a €12.5m is required to bring this to fruition.

At least there is some innovation left in the County Councils…somewhere….
