Galway Bay fm newsroom - County Councillors have unanimously approved plans to seek a 10 million euro loan to carry out extensive improvement works at social houses across Galway.
The local authority’s 2,400 housing units are currently maintained on a ‘response’ basis, when problems are reported by tenants.
The council intends to seek a ten million euro loan over a five year period to bring the housing stock up to standard.
The first step in the process will be a stock survey to determine the extent of works required, and the general condition of council homes across the county.
