An Coiste Logainmneacha - Waterford County Council's Placenames Committee

 An Coiste Logainmneacha (the Placenames Committee) was established in November 2002, with four principal aims: 

  • suggesting appropriate Irish only, or bilingual names for local authority housing developments
  • working in an advisory capacity with private developers in suggesting appropriate names for housing and other developments
  • ensuring the accuracy of both Irish and English placenames in local authority road signage throughout the county
  • offering a free translation service for businesses in the county who wish to erect Irish language signage

The overall aim of An Coiste Logainmneacha is to ensure as far as possible that names will reflect the rich Irish cultural heritage of County Waterford.

Anyone wishing to avail of the services of An Coiste Logainmneacha should contact the Irish Development Officer, Waterford County Council on (058) 20884 or msbreathnach@waterfordcoco.ie.
