2025 Accounts

Ashefield Residents Association publishes its statement of accounts each year. In 2025, we started with an opening balance of €968.18. Maintaining the common areas – specifically grass cutting – comprised all the expenditure throughout the year apart from a small amount of tax due to dividends as well as the account fee. We ended the year with a balance of €1036.

If you contributed, sincere thanks to you. We also wish to thank Mullingar Credit Union and Westmeath Co. Co. for their grant awards. As you can see from the accounts, it is not possible to cover the essential common area grass cutting costs without their and your generous help. If you wish to help with the costs for 2026, please consider donating securing via our Paypal link on this website or via a bank transfer.

The IBAN for Ashefield Residents Assocation is IE02MURU99100233253004

Please remember to note your house number in the payee message so we know who contributed and can issue a receipt. Receipts are issued automatically via Paypal if using that option.

Boundary works with Greville Park

Glenveagh contacted Ashefield Residents Association to inform us that work will soon begin along the boundary between Ashefield and Greville Park. These works are to complete the landscaping under and around the trees which include a boundary fence that they need to install. The image below outlines the works involved.

The Greville Park team stated they are committed to minimizing any disruption and inconvenience during this time and appreciate our understanding and cooperation. They apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you in advance for your patience.

In a follow-up query from the resident’s association, they stated that this is a prelimary notice and they will follow up with letters to the households in the affected area. They also provided the contact details for the site manager in case of any on-site issues or queries arising.

Have your say – weed spraying in Ashefield this year?

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

2025 Collections for Estate Common Area Upkeep

Hello residents and friends,

We are collecting annual donations for 2025 to cover the upkeep costs of the common areas of the estate that are the responsibility of all us residents. The bulk of the annual cost is grass cutting for all the estate common green areas.

As with previous years, we try to keep the cost to the absolute minimum. However, due to increasing costs and dwindling reserves as you can see for yourself in our published accounts, the 2025 contribution per household has been increased to €30.

The accounts summary for the residents association is published on this site for transparency and visibility. We wish to thank everyone who can contribute to the upkeep of the estate common areas.

You can click the button below to contribute securely using Paypal. Please note that an additional €1.50 is added to this to cover the Paypal charge.

Repainted roadmarkings

Have you noticed the newly redrawn traffic markings in the estate yet? They are hard to miss and should alleviate a longstanding safety problem as they gradually disappeared over the last 20+ years. This issue was raised by Ashefield residents association with Ken Glynn who delivered on it for us. Many thanks to him for staying on it and seeing it through to a successful outcome.
