Cork boundary extension 'must be met with real delivery for city’s new citizens'

The government has delivered on the boundary extension for Cork city - now it’s time for city management to deliver for citizens.

That was the message from Seanad leader, Fine Gael’s Jerry Buttimer, last night after the city’s first boundary extension since 1965 increased its footprint almost five-fold and increased its population by some 85,000 to 210,000.
