Council to sell controversial Drimark site

Donegal county council now plans to sell a site outside Donegal Town which had been earmarked to house a number of local travellers. The site at Drimark had been the subject of much debate with the vast majority of residents in the area opposed to any move to develop four housing units on the site on the Killybegs road. Clr Jonathan Kennedy said the matter is now closed following this week’s council meeting in Lifford and the site will be on the market in the near future. From OceanFM.

Gardai probe Donegal Town theft Aug 31, 6:09 pm

Gardai in Donegal Town are appealing for the assistance of the public following a theft at a business premises on the Killybegs road yesterday evening. Stock and a sum of money were stolen from a shop at Drimark sometime between 4pm and 5.15pm. The premises was open at the time. Local Gardai are anxious to speak to anyone who may have witnessed suspicious activity in the area at the time, in particular the movements of three young people who were seen near the shop yesterday afternoon.

The crime spree is getting worse, it seems. If you know who carried out this dastardly crime, phone the local Gardai. (From OceanFM)
