The Commissioners of Public Works purchased a site, adjoining the national school, for a new Garda station at Donard Demesne west in May 1983. They are currently consulting with the local authority under Part IX of the Planning Acts and a new Garda station will be built in the near future, subject to the availability of the necessary funding.
