Cork County Council in Trojan horse-style ‘stroke’

A veteran Cork City councillor has accused the county council of a Trojan horse-style ‘stroke’ designed to delay and frustrate the implementation of a city boundary extension.

Fianna Fáil councillor Tim Brosnan made the comments yesterday following confirmation that members of Cork County Council have unanimously agreed to submit a formal boundary alteration to the city council. The process could take several months.

“It is cynical, myopic, and self-serving,” he said.
