Councillors in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council adopted a new Corporate Plan for 2020-2024.
The Plan was developed following extensive consultation with the public, community groups, local citizen interest organisations, business groups, Council staff, Councillors and other stakeholders.
The aim was to gather as wide a view as possible on what aspirations people had for their County. Following this consultation period, the Corporate Plan was drafted and developed, taking on board existing council plans, public consultation views and relevant legislation. The Plan is much more than just another Council document; it provides a strategic framework for the Councils vision for the County, it’s goals for the next five years and the core values which will guide the Councils work over the lifetime of the Plan. It is available to read here at or at any one of our local libraries.
