Ramsey boundary extension reaches pre-inquiry stage

Commissioners want town to expand into areas of Lezayre and Garff

A pre-inquiry meeting into the Ramsey boundary extension proposal is being held in October. 

Peter Taylor has been selected to chair the inquiry which will discuss 'preliminary issues' and come up with a timetable and venue for the full enquiry. 

The boundary extension was requested by Ramsey Commissioners because they believe the town is at 'capacity', however Lezayre and Garff Commissioners are objecting to the expansion into their constituencies. 

The Department of Infrastructure says the public are welcome to the attend the meeting which is being held at the Mountain View Innovation Centre on Jurby Road.
