New_Finn_Harps_Stadium
The Donegal Community Stadium is a stalled construction project in Stranorlar, Ireland.[1] The stadium was initially intended to have a capacity of 6,800 spectators, and proposed as an association football venue to replace Finn Park as the home stadium of Finn Harps F.C. Planning permission was granted in June 2007,[2] and ground breaking was started in May 2008. After intermediate delays, work recommenced in late 2011 with foundations in place.[3][4] The project was again delayed in October 2012,[5] with "minimal work" undertaken between 2014 and 2020, pending €6.7 million in additional government funding.[6][7] In April 2021, a "provisional allocation" of government funding was reportedly announced.[8] By May 2022, the development plans were further revised and scaled-back to account for inflation and concerns that "prices for building works have rapidly risen [in 2022]".[9] This scaled-back proposal was reportedly given the "green light" in August 2022.[10]
