3. County Sligo – Settlement Strategy
3. County Sligo – Settlement Strategy 3.1 Growth model This section expands on the core aims of the Development Plan by setting out a settlement strategy for the urban and rural parts of the County. The settlement strategy draws on the RPGs and Sligo Sub-Regional Development Strategy 2001-2021. That Strategy, prepared in 2001, anticipated Sligo’s designation as a Gateway City prior to the publication of the NSS. Having reconsidered popula- tion forecasts in light of the NSS, the Council is eager to provide a proactive basis for the future development and regeneration of the County, developing Sligo into a city with a critical mass that is necessary to sustain the County and the North-Western Region into the future. This involves aiming towards a long-term, strategic population horizon of between 50,000 and 80,000 people over the next 20 to 30 years (a pace of development similar to that experienced in Galway over the past several decades). Such a population horizon should be a strategic reference point for actions at the day-to-day level, which would ordinarily be driven by providing for popula- tion growth based on past performance. Therefore, the approach taken in this Development Plan, is not a predict and provide one, but rather a plan → monitor → manage approach that ensures that Sligo can reach its Gateway status, with adjustments to land use zoning occurring during the preparation of subsequent local area plans and other land use plans for settlements throughout the County. In adopting a proactive approach to development in line with NSS projections, the Council has de- cided to pursue faster growth than was originally anticipated in the Sub-Regional Development Strat- egy 2001-2021.

AGE OF ROCKS: Precambrian; Devonian to Carboniferous, Paleogene Streedagh Point and Ben Bulben Lower Carboniferous limestones with the isolated mountain of Ben Bulben in the distance. This was carved by ice sheets as they moved past during the last Ice Age. 2 COUNTY GEOLOGY OF IRELAND: Sligo Geological Map of County Sligo Pale Purple: Precambrian Dalradian rocks; Pale yellow: Precambrian Quartzite; Green: Silurian sediments; Red: Granite; Beige:Beige:Beige: Devonian sandstones; Blue gray:Blue gray: Lower Carboniferous sandstones; Light blue: Lower Carboniferous limestone; Brown:Brown:Brown: Upper Carboniferous shales. Geological history The oldest rocks in the county form a strip of low hills extending along the south side of Lough Gill westwards past Collooney towards the Ox Mountains, with a small patch on Rosses Point north-west of Sligo town. They are schists and gneisses, metamorphosed from 1550 million year old [Ma] sedimentary rocks by the heat and pressure of two episodes of mountain building around 605 Ma and 460 Ma. Somewhat younger rocks, around 600 Ma, form the main massif of the Ox Mountains in the west of the county. They include schists and quartzites, once sedimentary rocks that have been less severely metamorphosed than the older rocks further east. In the far south of the county, around Lough Gara and the Curlew Mountains, are found a great thickness of conglomerates (pebble beds) and sandstones, with some layers rich in volcanic ash and fragments of lava.

The wind blows out of the gates of the day, The wind blows over the lonely of heart, And the lonely of heart is withered away. While the faeries dance in a place apart, Shaking their milk-white feet in a ring, Tossing their milk-white arms in the air; For they hear the wind laugh and murmur and sing Of a land where even the old are fair, And even the wise are merry of tongue; But I heard a reed of Coolaney say, 'When the wind has laughed and murmured and sung The lonely of heart is withered away!' from "The Land of Heart's Desire" (1894) by W.B.Yeats "The Collected Plays of W.B.Yeats" - London Macmillan, 1966 More Recent Books by Michael Farry: A Chronicle of Conflict; Sligo 1914-1921.
