The Enfield Town Centre First (TCF) Plan is a non-statutory community level plan produced by the local Town Team, who represent the local community and business representatives, with the support of Meath County Council. It identifies the challenges, actions, and integrated responses across a number of themes (such as business/commercial; housing; built environment; community/cultural and heritage).

The Enfield TCF plan is supported under the “Our Rural Future” Programme. It will be action and project-orientated in nature and will assist Enfield in accessing funding available for town regeneration across several government departments and agencies.

The Plan is been developed in accordance with the guidance set out in the “Town Centre First - A Policy Approach for Irish Towns”, published by the Department of Rural and Community Development, the aim is to create town centres that function as viable, vibrant, and attractive locations for people to live, work and visit, while also functioning as the service, social, cultural and recreational hub for the local community.
