The out-going first citizen of Tipperary town thanks the public for their support

Outgoing Mayor of Clonmel Cllr Richie Molloy has thanked the public for their support

The outgoing Mayor of Clonmel Cllr Richie Molloy has thanked the people of the town for their support during the year.
“As my term as Mayor of Clonmel comes to an end , I want to express my gratitude to each and every one of you for your unwavering support throughout the past 12 months. It has been a truly eventful year, beginning with the tragic accident in Clonmel that claimed the lives of four remarkable young individuals: Luke and Grace McSweeney, Zoey Coffey, and Nicole Murphy.
“In the face of such heartbreak, it was incredibly uplifting to witness the overwhelming turnout at the vigil held at our Town Plaza. This powerful display of solidarity underscores the exceptional sense of community spirit that thrives in Clonmel.
“Throughout my tenure, I had the privilege of hosting numerous mayoral receptions and extending the honour of two Civic receptions to two exceptional organisations in our town - Cuan Saor and Clonmel Og. These organisations have made invaluable contributions to our community, and it was an honour to acknowledge their outstanding work.
“I would like to express my deepest gratitude for your support. It has been an incredible journey, and I am proud to have served as your Mayor,” he said.

Last Wednesday Cllr Michael Murphy took over the role of first citizen from Cllr Molloy whose term came to an end.
