KCA meeting held online tonight
The 45-minute meeting had ten participants and was managed by KCA Chair Ann Cashman.
Among the matters discussed was the cancellation of the Tidy Towns Competition 2020, but Ray Kelly said that gives Kilcullen the chance to 'go for gold' in 2021.
The meeting heard that the Kilcullen In Bloom flowers programme will be proceeding, with work to be managed in regard of social distancing and other coronavirus protection protocols.
An update from Paul Leighton was provided on the distribution of wildflower seeds to estates and of 299 trees donated by the Irish Beekeepers Association.
The progress of applications for Leader funding for the town signage project and the new polytunnels was reported to be 'on track' despite some hiccups relating the very onerous documentation requirements.
A discussion on litter picking during the coronavirus situation clarified that it was up to individuals if they felt comfortable picking litter while on their exercise walks, but all normal activities in this regard by KCA are suspended.
The meeting also heard that contracts had been awarded for two local matters by Kildare County Council before the restrictions came in, for the wall in disrepair over The Valley, and for the resurfacing of the playground. But it is not now known when these works will be carried out.
