Galway City Council is currently progressing the delivery of Affordable Housing.

Schemes where Affordable Housing is available will be publicly advertised across the Local Authority website, local newspapers and social media.

The Local Authority Home Loan (LAHL) is available for people who are unable to obtain sufficient funding from commercial banks to purchase or build a home.

Local Authorities and Approved Housing Bodies are now seeking to purchase and renew housing units that are in need of remediation, and make them available for social housing use.

Local authorities may offer choice to approved housing and transfer applicants in selecting a new home. Applicants can express an interest in houses which are advertised.

A permit is required for the placement of a mobile crane/hoist/cherry picker on a public road or footpath that is maintained by Galway City Council.

This scheme was introduced to help bring vacant and derelict properties back into use as family homes and rental residential units.

Local authorities may provide designated parking bays for drivers or drivers of passengers with a disability permit.

The Road Safety Authority has responsibility for Driving Licences.

When the Council allocates you accommodation you become a member of the community in which you live. As such, the Council encourages you to become actively involved in your estate.
