Forskrift om studium og eksamen ved Høgskulen på Vestlandet, § 10 i Forord Masteroppgaven er skrevet våren 2018 som en avslutning på den toårige masteren i «Areal og eiendom» ved Høgskulen på Vestlandet, avdeling Bergen.

Vi håper arbeidet vil skape engasjement og være et godt bidrag i den videre utviklingen av Mosterhamn. Først og fremst ønsker vi å takke vår veileder Hans-Jacob Roald for god veiledning med verdifulle tilbakemeldinger underveis i prosessen. Takk til Bømlo Kommune for møter og innspill i forbindelse med utarbeidelsen av mulighetsstudiet, og ordfører i Bømlo Kommune, Odd Harald Hovland, for initiativet til at oppgaven ble til. Takk til Knut Martens som stilte til disposisjon for en grundig befaring i planområdet, for deltakelse på møte med kommunen, og for at vi har fått delta på møte med Moster grendautvalg. En takk rettes også til Rita Agdal, førsteamanuensis ved Hvl, som tidlig engasjerte seg i oppgavens tema som resulterte i at oppgaven ble et av delprosjektene i nærmiljøprosjektet. Til slutt vil vi takke medstudenter for gode diskusjoner og motivasjon under skrivingen, i tillegg til familie, kjærester og venner for engasjement og god støtte i et krevende semester.

  • Næringsanalyse Stord, Fitjar Og Sveio
    Næringsanalyse Stord, Fitjar og Sveio Av Knut Vareide og Veneranda Mwenda Telemarksforsking-Bø Arbeidsrapport 35/2007 ____________________Næringsanalyse Stord, Fitjar og Sveio_____________ Forord Denne rapporten er laget på oppdrag fra SNU AS. Hensikten var å få fram utviklingen i næringslivet i kommunene Stord, Fitjar og Sveio. Telemarksforsking-Bø har i de siste årene publisert næringsNM for regioner, hvor vi har rangert næringsutviklingen i regionene i Norge. I dette arbeidet er det konstruert en næringslivsindeks basert på fire indikatorer: Lønnsomhet, vekst, nyetableringer og næringstetthet. Oppdragsgiver ønsket å få belyst utviklingen av næringslivsindeksen og delindikatorene for de tre aktuelle kommunene. Når det gjelder indikatorene for vekst og lønnsomhet, er disse basert på regnskapene til foretakene. Disse er tilgjengelige i september i det etterfølgende året. Dermed er det tallene for 2005 som er benyttet i næringslivsindeksen i denne rapporten. Vi har likevel tatt med tall for nyetableringer i 2006 i denne rapporten, ettersom disse er tilgjengelige nå. I næringslivsindeksen er det imidlertid etableringsfrekvensen for 2005 som er telt med.
