Honour to lead way and support regeneration of Cork

Fri, 03 Jul, 2020 - 14:11

I was honoured to be elected as Mayor of the County of Cork following a unanimous vote by full council. My deepest thanks go to the people of East Cork for choosing me to represent them in Cork County Council and to my council colleagues for electing me as Mayor of the County of Cork. I would also like to congratulate Cllr Joe Carroll on his election as Deputy Mayor. I know I can speak for both of us on how much we are looking forward to our roles and continuing on the excellent example set out by our predecessors.

It is my intention to lead the way in supporting the regeneration of the economy of Cork county following Covid-19 by supporting local businesses, retailers, and communities. I aim to lead the council in meeting the challenge of housing delivery, and will work tirelessly to ensure that the community and voluntary groups who supported their communities during lockdown receive the support they need to return to full operation.
