Candidates invited to pre-election Town Hall Meeting

All candidates in the Naas Local Electoral Area have been invited to a Town Meeting in Kilcullen to explain how they will deal with Kilcullen issues if elected to Kildare County Council, writes Brian Byrne.

The meeting is being held in the Town Hall on Thursday 15 May and is being organised by Kilcullen Community Action. It begins at 8pm.

The event will be chaired by Maurice O'Mahony, and offers a unique opportunity both to members of the community who can raise questions about their concerns and to the would-be councillors who will have a chance to interact directly with Kilcullen a week before the election.

The invitations were sent out at the weekend, so there's no indication yet who amongst the candidates will attend, but we'll keep you informed over the coming nine days.
