Skibbereen has been identified as a ‘pathfinder’ town and funding has been granted to the County Council for the development of a regeneration plan.
The plan aims to tackle vacancy and dereliction, drive future development and breathe new life into town centres.
The County Council will be developing the regeneration plan for Skibbereen in consultation with the residents and business owners in the town as well as with the wider community who visit the town regularly.
The process will be facilitated by a newly appointed Town Regeneration Officer for Cork County and the first step in the consultation is a general survey of the Skibbereen community to help identify initiatives and projects that will support the development and regeneration of the town by all stakeholders.
The survey which will remain open until September 8th can be accessed on the County Council's website
