Council-Meeting-Limerick-004-scaled — MAYOR John Moran received strong criticism this week over a proposed multi-million euro commitment, from his discretionary mayoral fund, to purchase a 70-acre site in Patrickswell.

BRUFF Childcare project has been issued a grant contribution from the Mayor of Limerick.

The single story build encompasses two rooms and is located on the grounds adjacent to Scoil Dean Cussen National School.

The Bruff Grange Meanus (BGM) Community Council was awarded €149,485 in funding through the 2023 Community Recognition Fund through the Department of Rural and Community Development.

The Mayor has now issued a grant contribution of €50,000 to cover the interest costs of borrowings by the project, as per a commitment made in the More for Limerick Mayoral Programme 2024-2029.

Work, which is now nearing completion, has been underway in the community since 2024.
