New charges at Portballintrae Harbour?
Portrush councillor Christine Alexander told a meeting of Coleraine Borough Council last week that she felt it was ‘unfair to others’ that there was no charge at the village’s harbour.
Corporate Director of Leisure Services Richard Baker told the meeting that there was a ‘distinct difference’ in the state of the harbour at Portballintrae in comparison to Portrush and Portstewart.
