More street litter and potholed roads due to Cork council funding cuts 

Unless the Government intervenes and allocates extra funding, Co Cork's eight district councils will see budget cuts of 14%

A full bin is ready to be emptied along a walkway.

People living in Co Cork can expect to see more litter on the streets next year, along with less maintenance of graveyards, playgrounds, and local roads, as the cash-strapped county council has been forced to cut its budget to its eight municipal districts.

Unless the Government intervenes and provides more grant aid to the local authority, funding for these services in municipal districts will be cut by 14%.
