The biennial Irish Planning Awards recognise and celebrate outstanding achievements in the planning profession, including projects and plans at a local, county, regional and national level.

The awards, organised by the Irish Planning Institute (IPI), will take place this September and received a record number of entries this year.

The council’s collaborative project with Kildare County Council earned a nomination in Category 1: Plan Making for the council’s work coordinating the low carbon future of Maynooth.

Meanwhile, Meath County Council’s Duleek Heritage Led Regeneration Plan has been shortlisted in Category 4, highlighting the local authority’s goal of preserving and revitalising the county’s rich historical and cultural assets.
