Castletown

What lessons can be learnt from past flooding in Castletown?

That will be the topic of a public meeting on Thursday, which has been called by the town's MHK.

Richard Ronan says discussion needs to take place on how to protect the town going forward.

It follows two bouts of severe flooding this year which caused damage to the town's sea defences and to people's homes.

Representatives from the Department of Infrastructure, the Commissioners and the public have been invited to attend - it will take place at St Mary's on the Harbour at 7pm.
