There is no agreement in place providing rights to any adjacent property owner for the purchase of Ballacolla Garda Station. There are reciprocal rights of access between the Office Of Public Works and the owner of the former Garda residence to the rear of the Garda station to allow access to each others property for the purpose of maintaining shared services.
