The Limerick Leader article has John explaining the rationale behind it.https://www.limerickleader.ie/news/home/570305/expansion-of-limerick-restaurant-will-include-rooftop-garden-and-new-cafe.html But Limerick needs these type of people and projects. This man is willing to put his money where his mouth is and provide a service, he deserves praise in my eyes. There's far more crying out for public money for projects that won't last a few months. Lads. give credit where credit is due, in fairness. I predict it will be a success, he didn't just think of this last night over a few cans with the lads. There's years of thought and planning gone into this. Best of luck John and family.

Like anything we'd need a councillor to use it frequently enough that they can make noise about it otherwise nothing will likely be done. As an aside if you find local news from over the past 2-3 months you will people I know of were stopped by the council cleaning up the section of the river by Clancy Strand and the Condell road. The council told them they've no risk assessment, insurance etc and they must cease their civic community spirit in case something happens to them clearing rubbish, weeds etc.
