Councillor Martin Harley, the current Cathaoirleach of Donegal County Council, is determined to continue delivering for the community as he seeks re-election in the Lifford-Stranorlar Local Electoral area.
A native of Ballybofey, Cllr Harley was first elected to office in 2000 and has been re-elected in the last three local elections.
He said: “The last five years have been a difficult time for everyone with the arrival of the Covid 19 pandemic. There are many challenges ahead over the next 5 years and I would like you to give me the opportunity to work through these challenges as one of your 6 local Councillors.
Here are some of the things I want to work on:
- The Ballybofey / Stranorlar bypass is finally in sight and I expect work on the ground within 3 years.
- We need to make affordable housing a priority for people who fall between earning too much money to be eligible for social housing and not earning enough to get a mortgage. This along with the grants to renovate old houses and ensuring that all people affected by Mica are given full redress so they can get on with their lives.
- Greenways are so important here in East Donegal and it was great to open the Lifford to Castlefin Greenway in the last few weeks. I as your Public Representative want this to continue this onto Ballybofey / Stranorlar and on to Donegal Town through the beautiful Barnesmore Gap.
- We as a County Council need to work with Government to put the proper supports in place to ensure the viability of small to medium businesses and encourage new businesses.
- I want to work with Uisce Éireann to ensure all our towns and villages are connected to an efficient water supply and treatment plants.
