Cork County Council has officially launched its Local Economic and Community Plan 2024-2030. The development of this plan has been a collaborative effort between Cork County Council, its economic and community stakeholders and the citizens of Cork County. It provides a framework for how the Council by itself and in partnership with other economic and community development stakeholders will focus funding and supports to support the economic and community development of the county over the next 6 years.

The launch was attended by the Mayor of the County of Cork, Cllr. Frank O’Flynn, Elected Members of Cork County Council and members of the North, South and West Cork Local Community Development Committees (LCDCs), the Economic Development and Enterprise SPC and economic and community stakeholders from the Cork County LECP Advisory Group. These groups played a key role in the development of each stage of the plan and will continue to be an intrinsic part of the work to implement its goals and objectives.

Mayor of the County of Cork, Cllr Frank O’Flynn highlighted the collaborative nature of the plan,

On behalf of Cork County Council, we look forward to bringing this plan to life, continuing to work with our stakeholders and citizens over the next six years to further support the economic and community development of our county for the benefit of all.
