Clone Beach in North Wexford could be closed to the public this season if immediate action called for by a majority who attended a public meeting held in the Golden Anchor, Castletown, on Thursday night is ignored by Wexford County Council.
About 40 concerned locals attended the meeting which was well publicised in advance and chaired by local Cllr Joe Sullivan "in a determined effort to improve matters and to formulate a framework of action going forward for the betterment of the entire community."
The debate was focussed on the excessive volume of water in the Ahare River causing consistent flooding of adjacent lands, impeding traffic on the road between Castletown and Tara Hill and the stagnation of water at the bridge prior to the river emptying into the sea on Clone Beach.
It was a lively meeting with plenty of input and locals seeking immediate action, especially in relation to the two-metre-high sand cliff edges that have developed on Clone Beach.
Cllr Joe Sullivan told WexfordLocal.com thatClone Beach is "a safety hazard in its current state and it is impossible to cross to the beach." Cllr Sullivan is engaging with Wexford County Council and has been calling for action for some time, but to no avail. He is bringing the thoughts and feelings of the coastal community to the Council, and the Green Party, again, and unless something isn't done immediately the concerned residents are requesting that "all access to the public beach should be curtailed for safety reasons" and it is believed locally that cutting a channel, like used to happen in the days when the locals managed the rivers, would solve most of the existing problems and prevent such drastic action.
They are calling on Wexford County Council to hastily respond and engage with the close-knit North Wexford community. The matter will be on the agenda for the April meeting of Wexford County Council.

Imagine your hearts going out to the trans community but not to the children killed. Unbelievable.
Posted BY:Jasmine | NwoReport
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre declared Thursday that it is actually the trans community that is "under attack right now," despite a transgender murderer killing three 9-year-old children and three Christian teachers in a mass shooting earlier this week.
"Our hearts go out to the trans community, as they are under attack right now," Karine Jean-Pierre said.
For the sake of full context, the comments came as a reporter asked Jean-Pierre about the Kentucky legislature overriding the governor's veto of a bill restricting aspects of trans youth gender-affirming surgeries and the use of bathrooms.
Jean-Pierre responded, "we've been very clear about these anti-LGBTQ bills that we're seeing in state legislators — state legislatures across the country, in particular these anti-trans bills, as they attack trans kids, as they attack trans parents. It is — it is shameful. And it is unacceptable."
She continued, "As you mentioned, tomorrow's Trans Visibility Day. On a day that we should be lifting up our trans kids, our trans youth, and making sure that they feel seen, we see more and more of these hateful, hateful bills."
"And that's what Republicans want to spend their time on. They don't want to talk about lowering costs. They don't want to talk about actually making Americans' lives better. They want to take away people's freedoms," Jean-Pierre asserted, claiming that Joe Biden "has said many times before he has their backs. He will continue to have their backs. And he will continue to fight for them."
Watch:
The press Secretary's comments also come a day after Biden decreed that leaders need to protect the LGBTQ+ community in order to create a 'fair and more robust society.
Tucker Carlson noted Thursday night that the administration really wanted to stop violence, it would go after those committing the acts, instead of protecting them. https://www.youtube.com/embed/RGlMEaFzpek
