Meeting to discuss campaign for public park in Oranmore

Galway Bay fm newsroom - An online public meeting will take place tomorrow to discuss a community group's proposal for a new public park in Oranmore (12/4).

Oranhill Park would be located at the Oranhill estate to the south of the village - and a disused site managed by NAMA is currently being forward as the campaign group's preferred option.
