Leixlip Garda Station

The new Garda station opened its doors last autumn. To compliment the new structure Mr Jody Price, of Mill Lane, proposed a significant landscaping project in the open area in front of the building. After discussions with the Gardai and with the assistance of the town council he set to work. The result has been a stunning display of flower planters and beds. He entered this project into the Leixlip Town Council Adopt-an-Area competition, and won in his category and donated his winnings to LTTA.

We would like to commend Jody's commitment to our town and thank him for all the hours of hard work he has volunteered to our association.
