Butts Area Regeneration

The Butts Area Regeneration Project aims to carry out a detailed assessment of the Butts area and to engage fully with residents to determine what measures could best benefit the community.

Funding to the amount of €850,000 has been made available by the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage to prepare a detailed plan of actions for the Butts Area Regeneration Project and preparations are well underway. A Community Liaison Officer for the project was appointed in August 2024 and a site office is now in place at No 19, Pearse Street. Vincent Hannon Architects (VHA) were selected as consultants for the project. A Town Team was established with community representatives from the Butts. There are also nine sub-groups in place on various issues, including Housing, Sport, Youth, Age Friendly, Community Events, Heritage, Traffic/Road Safety, Education and Tidy Estate/Bio Diversity. A Community Consultation Event took place on November 6th at St Canice's Neighbourhood Hall. Feedback forms were made available to participants. People are asked to return these feedback forms to the office at 19, Pearse St by 22nd of November.
