The Mayor of Letterkenny Milford Municipal District says firefighters are angry at a statement issued by management this week in response to concerns they raised last week.
Cllr Gerry McMonagle says the firefighters’ statement was not self serving, but was born of a concern for public safety.
Cllr Declan Meehan claims there is a long awaited risk assessment which has not yet been seen.
