The West Clare Municipal District has been awarded €441,000 worth of funding which can be used as 'the final piece of the jigsaw' for projects in the area. The funding comes under the General Municipal Allocation and represents the same amount the West Clare MD received for the GMA in 2024. This means that each of the nine councillors will receive roughly €49,000 each to use towards projects of their own discretion. The same amount will apply to the seven councillors in Ennis, with a collective €343,000 also approved for the district this week. Ennistymon Fianna Fail Councillor, Shane Talty, says that with some large scale projects working out to cost more than initially expected, the GMA helps to seem them over the line.
