- 9 July 2018 Ashbourne carried
I call on Meath County Council and request the support of Ashbourne Councillors to add a variation in Stamullen, specifically to correct a planning anomaly which exists in the area. This anomaly exists due to past plans to move the old GAA club to new grounds. Areas were zoned to suit this development, which never took place. The new GAA grounds are now in a much better location in the centre of the village. The anomaly now means that an area, now zoned industrial, is right beside the residential part of the village and, worse still, a residentially zoned area is well outside the village, surrounded again by industrially zoned lands. By varying this area in Stamullen, much needed housing development can and will take place. It will also mean that there will be more centrally located green space in the centre of Stamullen, including the 15% under development plan guideline, allowing for a playground which residents desperately need and possibly more.
- 11 July 2018 Ratoath carried

The posts of responsibility include erecting signage and liaising with other state agencies such as the OPW.

This motion asks for immediate action as funding secured by Meath Tourism earlier this year will expire in September.
