Local Independent councillor Donal Grady said he is receiving more complaints about on-street drinking than any other issue.
The former mayor of Killarney said he is worried it will put tourists off visiting.
Mr Grady told Newstalk: "Drinking is the problem in Killarney and that is why my motion is looking for extra gardaí to try to keep control in Killarney, and keep it a place people want to enjoy.
"If people see a ruckus on the street, which is happening, they won't want to come back again."
