FIANNA Fáil city councillor, Kenneth O’Flynn has put down a motion to Cork City Council to exempt community, voluntary and sporting organisations from council rates.
“I am calling for this exemption because many local organisations with premises are finding it difficult to source funding to pay these rates while at the same time maintaining their existing levels of services to communities.
“While there has been no shortage of volunteerism within our local organisations, many are reporting that donations aren’t as strong as they used to be.
“This is something that is worrying many community leaders in Cork.
