Letter: Re Hideout development

Dear Editor,

I attended Monday night's meeting of the local "representative" group (Kilcullen Community Action), where this proposal was raised for discussion. Effectively, no discussion on the matter ensued; other than throwaway comments, no substantive comments were made by anyone.

I am at a loss to understand this, given this group's recent vehement championing of the necessity to maintain the "fabric of Kilcullen", i.e. the heights, in other areas of the town. Consistency does not appear to be their forte.

One is forced to conclude that local developers, in their opinion, must adhere to a set of guidlines this unelected, unrepresentative group have laid down, and others can propose what they wish without comment.

One is also grateful that a more balanced judgment will be forthcoming from those in authority, who will base their decision on substantive fact, and not on petty local spleen.

Donal Brennan.
