The most notable event of the year was the Local Elections and the move from three Town Councils and six Electoral areas to four Municipal Districts, a transition which is ongoing. Mayo County Council has completed the first series of re-structuring to deliver on our commitment to bettering our services to the people of Mayo. The Council now operates through four municipal districts structured within a unified local government organisation for the first time in over a century. We have thirty members elected until 2019 and the Council is chaired by the Cathaoirleach who is elected by the members annually. The Corporate Policy Group and the six Strategic Policy Committees initiate, develop and recommend policy to the Council. The day to day affairs of the Council is overseen by our Chief Executive who is supported by just under one thousand employees. Each Municipal District has a local office which delivers local services to the people in that district. Each is supported by the Council in cross county services and through the operational services of the Council. The economic recovery continues to grow, particularly on the eastern seaboard and the challenges for this Local Authority are becoming increasingly complex and demanding. The key significant changes during 2014 were :- Municipalities… The dissolution of the Town Councils and the setting up of four Municipal Districts in Mayo, the realignment of staff and structures and the revisions required to continue the economic development of the County and the delivery of effective public services to our communities is one of the most significant changes of the year and will take some considerable time to fully work through and bed in. Enterprise… The establishment of the Local Enterprise Office in Mayo, which is seen as a national leader in the sector, took place in May 2014. The ongoing work of the Enterprise and Investment Unit continues to point the direction towards significant economic growth for the County. Irish Water… Irish Water was established formally on 1st January 2014 and the transition of operations to the new public utility is continuing. The new arrangements mean that almost 20% of our services are now delivered on an agency basis under a Service Level Agreement with the new utility. Alignment… Mayo has been one of the ten frontrunner Local Community Development Committees (LCDCs) since January 2014. The new Social Inclusion Community Activation Programme is at procurement stage and will be rolled out through the LCDC. Discussions with the Local Development Companies on the proposed Rural Development Programme (LEADER) are progressing. Tourism… 2014 was an extremely good year for Mayo tourism with increased visitor numbers generally. The move to establish the Wild Atlantic Way has already shown significant benefits and Mayo’s effort to establish itself as “Heartbeat of the Wild Atlantic Way” as well as the adventure capital of Ireland is gaining traction. A number of key events including the development of a Signature Discovery Point at Downpatrick Head and the Surf Summit, a spin off from the Web Summit, have garnered extensive promotional opportunities for the county. These changes have been delivered in the context of increased pressure on resources and downsizing of staff.

  • Some Aspects of the Breeding Biology of the Swifts of County Mayo, Ireland Chris & Lynda Huxley
    Some aspects of the breeding biology of the swifts of County Mayo, Ireland Chris & Lynda Huxley 3rd largest Irish county covering 5,585 square kilometers (after Cork and Galway), and with a reputation for being one of the wetter western counties, a total of 1116 wetland sites have been identified in the county. Project Objectives • To investigate the breeding biology of swifts in County Mayo • To assess the impact of weather on parental feeding patterns • To determine the likelihood that inclement weather significantly affects the adults’ ability to rear young • To assess the possibility that low population numbers are a result of weather conditions and proximity to the Atlantic Ocean.
