Tidy Towns (Irish: Bailte Slachtmhara) is an annual competition, first held in 1958, organised by the Irish Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government in order to honour the tidiest and most attractive cities, towns and villages in Ireland. The competition is organised on a national basis, and entrants must complete modules including Overall Developmental Approach (5 Year Plan), The Built Environment, Landscaping, Wildlife & Natural Amenities, Litter Control, Tidiness, Waste Minimisation, Residential Areas, Roads and Streets & Back Areas.
The Competition is judged during the summer months (May to August) by an independent adjudicator, who issues each town with a written report complimenting positive development and actions and providing positive suggestions on how the community can improve their general surroundings.
Winners
Moynalty won Gold Medal in 2006. It would go on to win the 2013 Tidy Towns competition.
