Despair of Westmeath County Council

One could despair of Westmeath County Council. Not satisfied with stealing three car parking spaces when "upgrading" Martin"s Lane and stealing another three car parking spaces at upper Pearse Street, it has been reported that Dominick Street is to have nine car parking spaces stolen for a bus stop (must be some bus)!Westmeath County Council continues to damage our town and our business and will not be satisfied until all customer parking spaces in the town centre are gone. Fifteen parking spaces is a high percentage of available parking spaces in the town centre and I assume our local Councillors will reduce our rates by the same percentage when they meet to set this years rates.Yours faithfully,Des Walsh,14 Oliver Plunkett Street,Mullingar.
