Moyross, Cahirdavin and Coonagh are now part of the city thanks to the partial boundary extension. Here are what those involved had to say.
"Limerick County Council recognises the need to develop such a Region. Therefore, it has approved the limited extension, in the interests of the overall development of Limerick. Indeed, our presence in Moyross today is symbolic of the combined vision and mandate of the Government, Limerick City Council and Limerick County Council to deliver a brighter and inclusive future for Limerick and its people”, he explained.
Councillor Sheahan continued, “Our common goal dictates that communities across Limerick City and County are encouraged, developed and facilitated in every way possible. The Regeneration Initiative for the Moyross area and the Boundary extension make this goal more easily attainable."

"I am determined to see through the actions set out in John Fitzgerald’s report and this is another concrete action delivered. This Order will help reinforce the substantial momentum being generated to establish the conditions for a lasting and sustainable improvement on the lives of the people of Moyross, its wider neighbourhood and the city and region as a whole,” said Minister Gormley.
This is an exciting time for Limerick. I have a strong personal connection with Limerick City and I will continue to give my full support to the regeneration and development work underway here. I particularly welcome the depth of cooperation between Limerick City Council and Limerick County Council on this issue.
