Mayor Colleran-Molloy Intent On Building "Consensus" Around Ennis 2040

Clare FM

The incoming Mayor of Ennis insists building consensus around the Ennis 2040 proposals will be of pivotal importance during her tenure. Fianna Fáil Councillor Clare Colleran-Molloy has been chosen to wear the mayoral chain of the county town for the coming year, while her party colleague, newly-elected Councillor Antoinette Baker Bashua, will serve as Leas Cathaoirleach. Candidates campaigning against Ennis 2040 received over 7,500 first preference votes in the recent local elections, although Ennis 2040 board members Mary Howard and Clare Colleran-Molloy got the second and fourth-highest amount of votes, respectively. Clarecastle Fine Gael Paul Murphy meanwhile, who's expressed broad support for the proposals, was third over the line. With a broad range of opinions existing with Ennis Municipal District on the developments in the county town, Mayor Colleran-Molloy says democracy must prevail.
