The Fairways estate in Westport is to be taken over by the town council, news which was welcomed by town councillors at their monthly meeting last Thursday.
Councillor Christy Hyland proposed that the council should also carry out an audit of estates in the town which are not taken over, as some estates are left in the dark as lights are not on, while there are potholes in other estates.
An update on estates will be circulated at the town council meeting in July.
