Town & Village Renewal Scheme
Public Meeting – Monday 12th September 2016
The Town & Village Renewal Scheme was introduced by government and an allocation
of €380,000 will be available to Carlow County Council subject to applications reaching a quality standard. In order to facilitate the application process stakeholders, community representatives, groups and individuals are invited to attend a public meeting in order to generate project idea’s from the following Towns & Villages:
- Leighlinbridge
- Myshall
- Muine Bheag
- Tullow
- Borris
- Hacketstown
- Rathvilly
In order to prepare an application for your area there is a minimum requirement of 5 representatives from your Town or Village to attend this briefing. Representatives should come from various aspects of the community ideally. It would be appreciated if you could advise if you are attending by e-mailing your name and area to enterprise@carlowcoco.ie or by calling 059/9129783
The aim of the scheme is to:
- increase the attractiveness of the town or village as a local commercial and social centre, and as a result increase its sustainability as a place in which to live and work;
- enhance the towns/village environment and amenities in the interests of residents, businesses, and visitors;
- promote the town/village’s potential for tourism and as a centre for culture and local heritage, thus enhancing the sense of identity - physically and socially.
