A recent announcement on funding for the town sparked a broader discussion on social media about the amenities and features residents would most like to see.
Many calls for action focused on the town centre, including the former Dunnes Stores building on Main Street, which has lain empty since 2019.
Some hope to see the retailer return to the town, while others suggested the building could be repurposed.
Business rates and the dwindling numbers of free car parking spaces were also popular talking points for many residents.
Meanwhile, a look into the Larne Times archives revealed some recurring themes that residents would like addressed.
Here are 10 suggestions that Larne locals believe would make the town even better – do you have any to add to the list?
9. Lower business rates
Lower non-domestic rates were another priority, with many believing they are key to drawing new businesses into Larne. One local business owner whose rates went up steeply this year said: "It's difficult enough trying to provide a professional stable service to our customers without this. Why would any business want to start a new venture in Larne?" Photo: Google maps
10. Free car parking
Dwindling numbers of free car parking spaces in Larne town centre were another bone of contention for many residents, particularly after the borough council extended parking charges to the Circular Road East Car Park and Exchange Road Car Park during the summer. One resident commented: "No free car parking for people who work in the town and other people - it’s a disgrace. People won't want to come to Larne." Photo: Google maps
