*RAINWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR CARRIGTWOHILL - PLAN FOR MANAGING FLOOD RISK ARISING FROM RAINFAILL - PUBLIC INFO EVENT CARRIGTWOHILL COMMUNITY HALL JUNE 20th 6-8PM*
Last October, the rain which came with Storm Babet caused flooding to many parts of east Cork, including Carrigtwohill. Many homes & businesses were seriously damaged. While such events are not without precedent, climate change make storms as intense Babet more likely to happen, and it's important we adapt to this new reality (as well as doing our best to limit further climate change).
Arising from that need, Cork County Council's Planning Policy Unit (along with McCloy Consulting) are holding a public information evening on the Rainwater Management Plan that is currently being prepared for Carrigtwohill.
This plan will outline proposed interventions, intended to make Carrigtwohill a more flood resilient place.
This public information event will take place on June 20th in the Carrigtwohill Community Centre from 6pm-8pm. The link to the event notice on the Cork Co Co website is below.
Please do go along, have a look, and discuss the issue with the staff who will be available on the night.
