QUESTION FOR DROMORE RESIDENTS AND BUSINESS.

There has been an underspend of £100k for Dromore Regeneration. This is hoped to be ring fenced and kept for the Town Centre. (Town Centre only, Market Square and adjoining streets) it has a time limit to be used.

WHAT DO YOU THINK IT SHOULD BE SPENT ON

Funding is Dept of Communities
