Halloween 2009
Protect your Parks and Open Spaces
Unauthorised bonfires are illegal
And Dangerous
Bonfires Damage Your Community Facilities
Local communities are urged to keep their area free from any dumping or debris that could be used in bonfires. Council staff will be removing any material from open spaces prior to Halloween. Please co-operate with them. Reports of illegal dumping/bonfire material on Saturday 3lst October 09 should be made to the Council’s emergency after-hours no. 4574907 or 4138500
Make sure waste from your house is not used to damage your community facilities. There is a fine of €3,000 for handing over your waste to unauthorised collectors
Halloween cost the county over €600,000 in 2008 – Don’t let us waste more money this year to keep the county looking the same as it did the day before
