There is currently an audit of trees taking place in Westport by Mayo County Council.
That’s according to local Independent Cllr. Christy Hyland who says a tree came down in a recent storm near the library in the town but admits a review is needed.
Cllr. Hyland says the trees are an important part of Westport’s character but says pruning is needed along with better public lighting in areas of the town.
