Coiste Forbartha na Carraige Election Results
On Saturday the people of Carrick and the CDC area voted to elect a new Cosite Forbartha na Carriage/Carrick Development Committee this is the first time an election has happened in many, many years and came about following almost three months of firstly very well attended public meetings that were held due to the Sliabh Liag Distillery controversy and the demand for change and the election of an interim committee who worked to get the groundwork done for the incoming committee, positions and all other matters will be finalised at the AGM on January 7th.
We had a good turnout for the election considering the short time span, the bad weather and the fact a lot of people would have been busy in the run up to Christmas, thanks to all who took time to vote.
Following the election the following have been elected to Coiste Forbartha na Carraige and commiserations to those who did not get elected but thank you for putting your names forward it’s great to see so many people who are willing to help out:
James Byrne
Agnes Cunningham
Dessie Cunningham
