Cork County Council has approved a €538 million Budget for 2027, supporting almost €1 billion in combined revenue and capital investment across County Cork.

Budget 2027 has been prepared with a focus on the period from 2027 to 2030, providing a sustainable financial framework to support the delivery of services and investment priorities over the coming years. It seeks to balance the needs of a growing county with the challenges of inflationary pressures, increasing service demands and ongoing investment requirements.

The Rate on Valuation (ARV) will increase by 7.25% in 2027. This approach will provide certainty for businesses across County Cork in relation to their rates liability through to the end of 2029 in response to the ongoing national commercial rates revaluation process.
A new targeted commercial rates waiver scheme has been introduced to provide significant support to smaller businesses. The scheme will apply to more than 86% of ratepayers and 94% of pubs, restaurants and cafés, ensuring those most vulnerable receive the greatest level of assistance.

Investment is prioritised across a wide range of community services and infrastructure, including roads, public lighting, housing maintenance, parks, playgrounds, beaches, libraries, flood mitigation, climate adaptation measures, town regeneration projects and economic development initiatives.
