Milltown Town Centre First Masterplan
About:
In line with the Town Centre First Policy, Milltown was chosen as one of the 26 towns across the country to receive funding to develop a Town Centre First Masterplan. Kerry County Council have appointed a team of consultants to support the Town Team and the Council to prepare the new Town Centre First Masterplan for Milltown.
The Masterplan aims to set a community-led vision for the future development of the town, tackling dereliction and vacant properties, town linkages and building on its assets and positive attributes to ensure that Milltown develops as an attractive and desirable place to work, live, visit and do business. This would also enable the local community of Milltown to secure funding and attract investment into the town.
Key to the success of the Masterplan is the local community, businesses, and stakeholders. The Town Team in collaboration with the Council will lead and drive the Masterplan and will be supported by the Town Regeneration Officer.

After considerable field work and consultation, the draft masterplan is now ready for public review.
