Shopfront enhancement scheme to be extended to south and east Mayo

A shopfront grant scheme, which will focus on improving the overall visual appearance of shopfronts in the locality, is being prepared for the Claremorris-Swinford Municipal District.

A similar scheme has already been rolled out in the Castlebar district and Councillor Michael Burke asked that it be extended, to give businesses a help.

He was told a proposal is being put together, which would make a huge improvement in many towns and villages.
