Galway County Council is pleased to announce a Streetscape Enhancement Measure under the Town & Village Renewal Scheme 2022
Our Rural Future is the Government’s five-year strategy to revitalise rural Ireland and includes a commitment to upgrade and enhance shopfronts and street facades in our rural towns and villages. Improving the visual appearance of our urban streetscapes increases pride and confidence in our towns and villages, making them more attractive places to live, work and do business.
This activity will be funded by the Department of Rural & Community Development (DRCD) through this Streetscape Enhancement Measure for 2022. This is an additional Measure introduced as part of the Town & Village Renewal Scheme and €7 million is being made available under this Measure in 2022 with a total allocation to Galway County Council of €90k
The Department of Community and Rural Development for the 2022 Measure has allowed for one location in the County. Tuam Town Centre has been identified as a priority area and is a follow on from the Goals expressed in the Tuam Masterplan, previously published by Galway County Council.

This Measure will support activity such as painting (including murals), signage replacement, shopfront improvement, lighting, and canopies.
Eligible applicants are tenants or owners of commercial, residential or unoccupied buildings in the town/village centres locations as defined in the scheme boundary maps for each area.
