Special meeting to discuss Cork City boundary move

Cork City councillors are due to hold a special meeting next Monday to discuss the latest fall-out from the Mackinnon report on the city boundary extension.

A city council spokeswoman confirmed that details of Cork County Council’s proposal to extend the city boundary were provided to City Hall last Friday afternoon, before the bank holiday weekend, and were circulated to city councillors later that evening.

The Mackinnon report said the city council’s boundary should be extended to include Cork Airport, Ballincollig, Blarney, Glanmire, Little Island, and Carrigtwohill.
