Mayor David Fitzgerald (FG) has called for public toilet facilities to be incorporated into the Abbey Quarter Masterplan for Kilkenny city.
The Mayor made the comments at this month's meeting of Kilkenny County Council.
"There is currently a deficiency of public toilets in Kilkenny," he said.
"There are various public amenities planned for the Abbey Quarter including a public park so it is essential to develop public toilets in that part of the city," he added.
His comments came following a presentation to councillors on the subject of progress at the Abbey Quarter.
