The Sligo regeneration project is currently at master planning stage. With the exception of some ‘early win’ projects, expenditure to date relates to the development, in consultation with the local community and other stakeholder groups, of the detailed masterplan and implementation strategies for the Sligo regeneration project. Completion of the masterplan will inform future strategies for the refurbishment of local authority and privately owned properties in the Cranmore Estate. Some €1.38 million was recouped to Sligo Borough Council in 2013 in respect of the regeneration work programme. A decision on the overall level of funding to be provided in 2014 will be notified to the Council shortly.
