A Letterkenny businessman is calling for action to rejuvenate the Church Lane area of the town. Kevin Keeney, who has run Bakersville for 20 years says the area is becoming more run down every year, and is now at risk of becoming a slum.

He’s urging the Town Council to take action now………..

Cllr JIm  Lynch has been a long time advocate of rejuvenating Church Lane as part of a wider programme to promote the Cathedral Quarter.

He says it’s time to revisit the debate in the council chamber, particularly as the authority has responsibility to combat dereliction.

He says there must be a new focus on the area……….
