Notes from a meeting of Cork County Council, 25th May 2015

Social Housing Strategy 2020 – not on the agenda but summary of progress is distributed: Social Housing Strategy 2020

CE summarises.

Cllr O’Grady (SF):  138 unfinished estates in the county.  Referred to a previous motion.  There are 673 housing units empty at the moment that could be utilised.  None of those has yet come to the Council.  Will we take a multi-faceted and integrated approach?  We should be pursuing NAMA and NARPS to fast-track these units.  Almost 5,500 families looking at these unfinished estates who bought their houses in good faith, expecting to live in pleasant surroundings.  They are being forgotten about as well.
