City council officials reveal projects included in newly approved €60m loan

City council officials have revealed the other projects which will be covered by a newly approved 60 million euro loan.

We learned yesterday that part of it will be used for the fit-out of the CIty Council's new but controversial HQ in Crown Square. (more info here)

The majority of Councillors last evening voted in favour of the loan, aside from Social Democrats Councillors Eibhlín Seoighthe and Alan Curran.

Other projects which will be funded include masterplans at Kingston, South Park and Renmore; and the redevelopment of Woodquay Park and Galway City Museum.
