A proposal by Mayo County Council to raise a loan of £55,000 to finance an extension of the Council's machinery yard, including the erection of new buildings, stores, workshops, etc., was received in the Department on 13 June, 1961. After detailed consideration of the financial and engineering aspects of the proposal, the Council were requested to consider a modified and less costly scheme which would cater for actual and immediately prospective needs, and be capable of future extension, if needed. The Council's further views and proposals are now awaited.
