This concept has influenced the format and the layout of the plan, which is designed to integrate all of the issues that have implications for the future development of the County. The format of this Development Plan is also designed to enable the reader to understand the principal issues in County Waterford, such as housing, infrastructure, transportation and waste, that need to be addressed in a manner which allows the preservation of the environment over the next plan period. Crucially, the plan is designed to help members of the public ascertain how all proposals for development are assessed in County Waterford. The plan is also intended as a guide to persons who wish to undertake development in the County. The Development Plan consists of 4 chapters, which comprise the written statement, together with the schedule of maps. Should any conflict arise between the written statement and the maps, the written statement shall prevail. Chapter 1 of the Plan reviews the development context of County Waterford. Chapter 2 covers the sustainable development strategy for County Waterford. It sets out exactly what the county wide policies and the objectives of the Council are, with respect to all issues that impinge on land use in the County. It includes a number of Sustainability Indicators that have been devised for County Waterford to ensure that the implementation of the strategy in the Development Plan can be monitored against the broad principles of sustainability over the plan period. These sustainability indicators are marked by the following symbol. [Si] Chapter 3 consists of the policies and objectives of the Council for County Waterford with respect to settlement and the development strategies for each settlement within it. Chapter 4 focuses on the issues that the Planning Authority will consider when processing a planning application. It deals with the major issues that are to be addressed when a member of the public is making a planning application. 1999 Waterford County Development Plan 1 2 1999 Waterford County Development Plan 1.

I had just finished my school-going days and had commenced to assist my father in his hardware business in my native town of Carrick-on-Suir. There was then no unit of the Irish Volunteers in Carrick-on-Suir.. There were, however, in the town a. few nationally minded people, such as Dr. Murphy, Maurice Hickey and some members of the Dowley families, who had broken away from the Redmond ite Party and the Irish National Volunteers when the split took place in that body a few years before, but, as far as I am no effort was made to establish an aware, Irish Volun6eer company. On the other hand, Carrick-on-Suir held amongst the towns of Ireland the unenviable distinction of, in proportion to its population, giving the second highest percentage of recruits to the British Army.

Waterford SURVEY OF PRE-1923 COUNTY WATERFORD INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE 1. INTRODUCTION Waterford County Council, supported by the Heritage Council, commissioned Dublin Civic Trust in July 2007 to compile an inventory of the extant pre-1923 industrial heritage structures within Waterford County. This inventory excludes Waterford City from the perimeters of study, as it is not within the jurisdiction of Waterford County Council. This survey comes from a specific objective in the Waterford County Heritage Plan 2006 – 2011, Section 1.1.17 which requests “…a database (sic) the industrial and engineering heritage of County Waterford”. The aim of the report, as discussed with Waterford County Council, is not only to record an inventory of industrial archaeological heritage but to contextualise its significance. It was also anticipated that recommendations be made as to the future re-use of such heritage assets and any unexplored areas be highlighted. Mary Teehan buildings archaeologist, and Ronan Olwill conservation planner, for Dublin Civic Trust, Nicki Matthews conservation architect and Daniel Noonan consultant archaeologist were the project team.
