Important News about Raheny’s 3 Year Development Plan

RAHENY 3 YEAR DEVELOPMENT PLAN

Shortly after the Raheny Business Association was formed in 1988, a sub-committee was set-up and they created the Raheny development plan. This was a most comprehensive and inspiring document and has been the blueprint at the forefront of our efforts over the years to drive tasteful and sustainable developments in Raheny.

It is only when you look at the “before and after” pictures that you appreciate how much has been achieved over the years.

Raheny Business Association proposes to write a new development plan over the coming months and you are invited to a public meeting to discuss how we plan to go forward.

We would value your input into the planning stage and have invited all the key stake holders in the area to attend, including members of the RBA, Raheny Heritage Society, Raheny Tidy Village Group, Federation of Raheny Residents Associations.

Details for the meeting are shown below.

Where :            Raheny United FC Clubhouse, All Saints Drive

When :             Tuesday 21st May

Time :              7.30pm

Please RSVP to Barry on 087 235 6931 or email rahenybusiness@eircom.net to confirm your attendance
