Limerick will stagnate without single local authority, business group claims

LIMERICK will stagnate and face prolonged decline if the recommendations of Denis Brosnan’s report on the future running of the city are not implemented, Limerick Chamber of Commerce has warned.

Limerick City Council has come out strongly against a recommendation in the report to abolish Limerick city and county councils and replace them with one authority.

Mr Brosnan has also recommended the extension of the city boundary in his report, Renewing Local Government in Limerick.
