📣We have launched an online survey to help determine the level of demand for affordable housing across the county. The information collected will help the Council plan future affordable housing schemes and decide eligibility requirements.
✍️The survey is aimed at first time buyers and other people who believe they may be eligible to buy an affordable home. Participants are asked to provide details such as income levels, family size, disability status and other relevant information.
🏠The data gathered will be used by Cork County Council to build a clearer picture of affordable housing need and to support informed decision-making on the scale, design and location of future developments.

2026 Commercial Rate Waiver Scheme to support Vacancy, Dereliction and Town Centre First priorities initially in the towns of Kanturk, Mallow and Youghal.
By encouraging the occupation of long-term vacant commercial properties through this scheme, the Council will support the improvement in their appearance which will contribute indirectly to increased footfall for existing businesses.

• Facilitate opportunities for new businesses which have been established.
• Facilitate the development of new retail, office, related commercial and industrial services that will revitalise commercial centres in the County.
• Support new business creation as a means of generating new vibrancy in towns within the County.
• Demonstrate the serious commitment of the Council to contribute to economic development and regeneration across the County.
The Scheme is applicable to the use of existing rated commercial properties that have been listed as vacant for a minimum of 2 years (31st December each year).
The Scheme will be available to:
• a newly established business;
• an existing business relocating or expanding from outside the County;
• an existing business maintaining current location and expanding into a new location.
