Cork County Council has launched a survey urging the Kanturk community for their views to the development of a regeneration plan for the town.

Funding of €30,000 to develop a Town Centre First Regeneration Plan for the North Cork town was approved in March this year by the Department of Rural and Community Development. The funding will be used to develop a community-led vision for Kanturk leading to the development of a Town Centre First Plan that can then support competitive bids for national and local funding to progress the projects identified.

The aim of the Town Centre First Policy is to create town centres that function as viable, vibrant and attractive locations for people to live, work and visit, while also functioning as the service, social, cultural and recreational hub for the local community.

Cork County Council will be developing the regeneration plan for Kanturk in consultation with residents and business owners together with the wider community who visit the town regularly.
