Bags dumped on the road next to Davy Brennan Memorial Park
Glenties residents have again expressed their anger after more bags of household waste were illegally left at the bottle banks located on the Gortnamucklagh road adjacent to Davy Brennan Memorial Park - the home of Naomh Conaill GAA Club.
It's becoming a frequent occurrence and one that is bugging residents who pride themselves on winning and finishing in the upper echelons of the annual Tidy Towns competition.

One Facebook poster commented: "The usual suspect has struck again, on the morning of our first home championship game, were our club volunteers have been working tirelessly to have our grounds looking fantastic for the big game. This is happening every few weeks, it's time for CCTV Donegal Co. Council".
Another added: "Unfortunately, Donegal County Council continue to give the two fingers to the community here on this issue. This bottle bank is not fit for purpose in its current state at this location and hasn't been for years. This illegal dumping as you say is a serious ongoing issue there. The inaction of the Council is as bad as those that are dumping there though. The entire bottle bank site is an embarrassing mess".
