## Resource

Galway City Council has approved the sale of Shantalla land to the HSE for a permanent helipad, a move sparking heated debate over green space loss versus urgent healthcare needs. Valued at €1.8 million, the funds will be reinvested locally, with conditions approved 13-5. Five councillors opposed, citing environmental concerns, while supporters emphasized regional emergency access. The decision paves the way for improved medical transport and future Shantalla development, pending community engagement and careful oversight.
