Public urged to have its say on county blueprint

The public is being invited to have an input on a new blueprint for sustainable development in Co Cork.

A series of meetings has been arranged where the public can engage with council officials as they draw up a six-year plan which will come into force in 2015.

County manager Martin Riordan said that while the pace of construction had slowed considerably in recent years, it was still essential to develop a plan which would establish a sustainable platform for the economic recovery of the county.
