In accordance with Westmeath County Council’s Biodiversity Action Plan and specifically to reduce the use of herbicides and pesticides containing glyphosate, Resident’s Associations are advised that the local authority will only spray weeds in estates in the charge of Westmeath County Council if a specific request is received from the Resident’s Association for that estate.
Ashefield Residents Association must confirm if wish to “opt in” for weed spraying with glyphosate based products in 2025.
Therefore, we want to hear from Ashefield residents – we will adopt the majority decision from a poll. Please vote below.
The deadline for your vote is May 26th, 2025
