Corporation members to name private estates

Archiseek / Ireland / News / 2001 / October 27 2001: Corporation members to name private estates

Kilkenny Corporation is to enact by-laws that will give elected members the power to name new private housing estates. In what is being described as an attempt to stamp out "cheap attempts at grandeur", the Corporation will take the power to name estates away from developers. This follows the construction of estates in the city with names such as Richview, Marble Crest, Holly Bank and Linton Hall.
