  • We Are Not Alone on This Island

    We Are Not Alone on This Island

    Attachment F.1 Supplementary Information Nature Conservation Area Designation. Ireland, while a relatively small Island, is home to 28 species of land mammal, over 400 species of birds, more than 4,000 plant species, over 12,000 species of insect and a huge range of other living creatures. Kildare has a wide diversity of natural and semi-natural habitats such as bogs, wetlands, lakes, river and upland habitats that support a wide range of wild plant and animal species. However, our recent economic developments have put the sites in which these flora and fauna can be found under serious pressure. Declining farming incomes and the need to further intensify has further led to a reduction in “marginal Lands” which were once a haven for such species. In order to conserve the variety of birds, plant and animal species in Ireland it is necessary to conserve the habitats in which they live. Conservation areas are being designated in order to achieve this. Over 10% of land of Ireland is formally and legally designated as being of European importance for nature conservation. There are three main types of Conservation Site Designation: • Natural Heritage Area (NHA), • Special Area of Conservation (SAC) • Special Protection Area (SPA). Natural Heritage Areas Natural Heritage Areas are the primary National designation. In 1981 An Foras Forbaithe identified 27 ASI (Areas of Scientific Interest) in Kildare as part of a national inventory to identify Forspecial inspection purposesor typical only. landscape/geological features, Consent of copyright owner required for any other use. habitats, plant/animal species and communities. The areas of ecological interest were resurveyed (1991-1994) and designated NHA.

    Chapter 3 - Settlement Strategy

    Wicklow County Development Plan 2016‐2022 CHAPTER 3 - SETTLEMENT STRATEGY 3.1 Introduction This chapter sets out the Settlement Strategy for County Wicklow. The Settlement Strategy is in accordance with the Strategic Policy Context and Core Strategy, as outlined in Chapters 1 and 2. It sets out the strategy for the future development of settlements and the rural area. In particular it sets out the role and function of each level within the Settlement Hierarchy and includes information on the growth targets and occupancy controls within each level. A visual representation of the settlement hierarchy is shown on maps 03.01, 03.02 and 03.03. 3.2 County Wicklow Settlement Strategy LEVEL 1 – METROPOLITAN CONSOLIDATION TOWN Settlement: Bray Population and Growth Target The population of the settlement is targeted to increase from 29,339 in 2011 to 40,000 in 2028. Role and Function Bray is the largest town in County Wicklow located in a strategically important position within the metropolitan area and at the eastern gateway to the County. The town has the best transport links in the County, with access to the N/M11 transportation corridor (including M50), DART/ rail line and quality bus service. It is a strong active town that provides a higher order economic and social function for its local residents and for residents from other surrounding towns and villages. Further expansion of the town is severely constrained on all sides by the administrative boundary of Dun Laoghaire Rathdown and the coast to the north and east, Bray Head / Sugarloaf mountains to the south and the N/M11 to the west.
