With Drogheda’s designation in the 2040 Plan we must now put in place the most feasible way to achieve ‘City Status’, and plan for our development as a future city with our very own city manager. President of Drogheda Chamber, Shona McManus, said during the meeting it raised the report of the Boundary Review Commission given to the Minister of the Environment in February 2017.
Speaking to TheJournal.ie Anna McKenna, the DCSG secretary, said that the Drogheda City Status group were “very disappointed” that they were not invited to the Taoiseach’s meeting with Drogheda Chamber. The results of that Census are already obsolete, as our growth has been relentless and since then, housing completions in the Greater Drogheda Area are almost on par with the combined figures for Dundalk and Waterford, adding several thousand people to our local population. The group also want Vardkar to create a suitable Local Government structure to assist in expediting the “much-needed” Northern Environs Housing Plan.
