Residents Associations

A Residents Association is a group of local people living in a community who come together to promote and enhance their local area and act as a voice for the community.

Residents Association Handbook

A Residents Association can represent households who are purchasing, own or rent their homes in Local Authority or Private Estates. Meath County Council encourages and supports residents to work together and represent the views of all residents to make their estate/ community a better place to live.

The Association will help address the issues / concerns of the area, such as local environmental and maintenance issues (grass cutting, clean-ups etc), car parking, traffic hazards; and assist in identifying solutions. It can undertake community projects, for example, apply for grants, organise social events, represent interest in the local area and influence decision makers. It can also be an opportunity to meet your neighbours and gain new skills.
