Council pleas for land for houses

A PLEA has gone out to landowners in north Cork to help Cork County Council get land to build local authority homes.

The request was made at the council’s northern division meeting in Mallow yesterday, after it emerged that approximately 1,000 people are on the housing waiting list.

Acting assistant county manager Tom Stritch said he was “concerned” about the level of council-owned landbanks in the region and specified there was a need to focus on 21 towns and villages which were earmarked for growth.
