Galway Bay fm newsroom:
A public meeting will take place in the city next week to launch a business plan for a community centre in the Newcastle area.
The Newcastle Combined Community Association has created the plan as part of its continued efforts to progress a community centre for the area.
The group has submitted it to Minister for Rural and Community Development Michael Ring and a meeting with the minister has been requested.
The 5 year plan is based on the needs of the community and outlines the resources needed to meet those requirements.
It's estimated that 1 million euro in funding will be required to build a community centre on the site provided by the city council - which is located adjacent to Croi.
