People,
The latest plea from Carrickminders. Can you ignore this and look yourself
in the mirror tomorrow? They NEED YOU NOW.

~>Carrickminders Press Release January 1st 2003
~>
~>Interchange Construction Blockade at Carrickmines
~>
~>A blockade, designed to prevent construction of the interchange at
~>Carrickmines, will be put in place at 8am, Thursday, January 2nd at
~>Carrickmines Castle. ~> ~>Carrickminders, along with historians,
archeologists, and local ~>residents, will ~>protest the interchange
construction which has already begun at ~>the Castle site. ~>
~>Carrickminders will allow archeological excavations to continue but will
~>peacefully prevent large diggers and machinery from entering a sensitive
~>archeological site. Already the remains of settlement and wooden
~>buildings have ~>been filled in and flattened. ~> ~>Carrickminders demand
an immediate reassessment of all plans for the M50 ~>motorway and adjoining
lands, such as Jackson Way Properties, in the the ~>Carrickmines Valley. ~>
~>Planning should be for human beings, not simply industry and ~>personal
gain. ~> ~>During the planning and environmental impact study stages for the
~>valley, local ~>residents made thousands of written and oral submissions.
The ~>Flood Tribunal ~>has recently called this entire process into
question, by showing ~>these were ~>completely ignored. Frank Dunlop made
allegations of corruption ~>against Dun ~>Laoghaire/Rathdown County Council
members concerning rezoning of ~>residential ~>and industrial land. ~> ~>The
recent proposal by the Department Of Health to replace ~>Environmental
Impact ~>Statements (EIAs) with Environmental Health Assessments (EIHAs)
~>also suggests ~>that current plans which remain to be implemented are
fatally flawed and ~>outdated. Carrickminders are in full support of the
Departments ~>of Health's ~>document entitled 'A Shared Vision for Quality
of Life,' and ~>welcome their ~>introduction to the planning process. ~>
~>Carrickminders call on the Department of Health to examine the ~>current
plans ~>for Carrickmines and work with Dun Loaghaire/Rathdown County
~>Council to create ~>a truly sustainable community which would weave
together the ~>vital historical, ~>health, natural, residential, social, and
commercial concerns. ~> ~>Carrickminders call on all interested parties to
come and witness ~>the blockade ~>and voice their opinion. ~>
