Public Gardens

A feature of Wexford urban landscape improvement has been the involvement of resident groups. This is particularly so in the case of grass-cutting, where groups are grant-aided in the purchase of a mower.

They can then maintain the grass to a standard they choose, rather than rely on the surprisingly meagre resources of the Authority.

The Park and Open Spaces Section plays its part by trying to have examples of summer colours within sight of visitors to town, by supplying bedding plants to  organised groups for planting in local and public ground and so on. They also liaise with resident groups and others interested in a partnership approach to enhancing the town environment.

We believe in leading by example. The grounds of the Municipal Buildings are admired by native and visitor alike.
