The development plan must offer clear guidance on sustainable development policies and objectives, addressing various issues such as settlement and the creation of sustainable communities, economic development, transport, energy, judicious use of natural resources and adaptation to climate change Sligo County Development Plan 2017-2023 (CDP) sets out an overall strategy for the proper planning and sustainable development of County Sligo, in accordance with the Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended). As a result of the implementation of the Local Government Reform Act 2014 and consequent abolition of Sligo Borough Council, Sligo County Council has extended its jurisdiction over the Sligo and Environs area, for which two development plans were previously prepared jointly by the two planning authorities (in 2004 and in 2010) The Local Government Reform Act 2014 also established a Municipal District system of local administration. There are two such districts in County Sligo: the Municipal District of Sligo and the Municipal District of Ballymote-Tobercurry. This Plan builds on the review of the Sligo CDP 2011-2017, taking into account recent changes as well as national, regional and local policy developments. The CDP presents the Council’s outlook for the future development of County Sligo and its Gateway City for the period up to 2023, within a long-term perspective. The Plan provides a spatial planning framework designed to support the economic and social development of the County, as envisioned in the first Sligo Local Economic and Community Plan 2016-2021. 1 Sligo County Development Plan 2017-2023 Consolidated Draft + Adopted Amendments – August 2017 Volume 1, Chapter 1 – Introduction 1. County Sligo today: the planning issues Since the last development plan for Sligo was adopted in 2011, there have been important developments at national, regional and local level. The local government reform of 2014, changes in national and regional policy and recent demographic and economic trends gave rise to issues that must be addressed in the new County Development Plan. 1.1 Planning policy A variety of national, regional and local government policy documents have been reviewed in preparing this Development Plan. The Policy documents most relevant to the CDP are: at national level: the National Spatial Strategy 2002-2020 at regional level: the Border Regional Planning Guidelines 2010-2022 at local level: the Sligo Local Economic and Community Plan 2016-2022 (LECP) and the Sligo and Environs Development Plan 2010-2016 (SEDP) Key messages from these documents are outlined below. At national level: 1. The NSS, Ireland’s first national strategic planning framework, identified Sligo as an urban centre to be developed in an accelerated manner as a Gateway City to drive the overall development of the North-West. This County Development Plan, like its predecessors, promotes growth in the Gateway City of Sligo while seeking to achieve balanced development in County areas outside gateways. The NSS is due to be replaced by a statutory National Planning Framework (NPF) in 2017. It is expected that the NPF will retain the Gateway designations and will continue to promote balanced development of the national territory, taking into account the diverse characteristics of urban and rural areas. At regional level: 2. The Border RPGs 2010 aimed to support the development of the Gateways identified in the NSS within a more detailed framework that includes Hubs and other key towns outside the Gateways. The Guidelines established a broad framework for county development plans to ensure that the development of the Gateways under the NSS moved forward in tandem with a process of strengthening other urban areas and supporting a dynamic rural community. The RPGs also set minimum population targets and related housing land requirements for counties and major urban centres in the Border Region up to the year 2022. The Core Strategy of this County Development Plan takes full account of the RPG population targets. The Border Regional Planning Guidelines are due to be replaced in 2017 by a Regional Spatial and Economic Strategy prepared by the Northern and Western Regional Assembly. At local level: 3. The first Local Economic and Community Plan for County Sligo was prepared by Sligo County Council and the Local Community Development Committee during 2015 and adopted in January 2 Sligo County Development Plan 2017-2023 Consolidated Draft + Adopted Amendments – August 2017 Volume 1, Chapter 1 – Introduction 2016. The LECP sets a vision, goals, objectives and detailed actions designed to mobilise all stakeholders with an interest in a successful future for Sligo.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION 1.1 Under the Local Government (Planning and Development) Acts, each Planning Authority is obliged to prepare a Development Plan for its functional area and review this Development Plan every five years. The Development Plan is the core document of the planning and development process. It presents Sligo County Council’s short to medium term view of the future development of the county and underpins the Council’s overall objectives of promoting and facilitating development, conserving the environment and achieving optimum use of resources. The Development Plan provides a framework for the physical development of the county and allows for sustainable, co-ordinated and orderly growth which respects the county’s natural, built and heritage resources. This County Development Plan reviews and updates the previous County Development Plan adopted by Sligo County Council in 1985. It takes account of the major developments that have occurred since 1985 in terms of population and economic trends, physical infrastructure, growth patterns and social deprivation. It recognises and sets out physical development objectives aimed at redressing the enduring problems of rural depopulation and disadvantage, dereliction, sporadic housing in scenic areas and service deficiencies. Every effort has been made to incorporate significant changes in legislation, Departmental guidelines, European Union directives and socio-economic factors impacting upon the development process; the intention is to present a concise, document which guides and informs the achievement of sustainable development1. Sligo County Council will have regard to the aims of Local Agenda 21 in the formulation and implementation of policies contained within the Development Plan2. Sligo County Council is committed to assisting the community in promoting environmental education, supporting local development group projects, providing local environmental information and engaging in public consultation procedures and partnerships.

  • Personhood of Water Depositions of Bodies and Things in Water Contexts As a Way of Observing Agential Relationships
    Personhood of Water Depositions of Bodies and Things in Water Contexts as a Way of Observing Agential Relationships Christina Fredengren Abstract This paper stems from a curiosity about relationships between water, depositions, life, death and sacrifice. It probes into how traditional binaries such as nature/culture, human/ animal, alive/dead and language/reality were addressed in Irish medieval place lore, using critical posthumanist theory to explore ways in which agential powers were not merely as- cribed to the environment, but also observed and acknowledged by people in the past. It also considers how the agentialities of both artefacts and waters could have affected and made their way into human storytelling. In so doing, the paper presents a contribution from ar- chaeology to the emerging field of environmental humanities, offering research that could entice us to sharpen our environmental sensibilities and respond to environmental change. Depositions of things and bodies in wet contexts are often understood as sacrifices made to deities located in the otherworld. However, there is plentiful evidence in archaeology and in medieval place-lore to suggest that waters were observed as being alive, as immanent beings, as more-than-human persons who could have received these depositions as gifts. This study explores how depositions would have added to and reconfigured such water- personhood in locally and regionally situated ways, and how they may also have worked as apparatuses for paying close attention to the water environment. Keywords: materiality, rivers, lakes, wetlands, ontology, human-animal relations, sacri- fice, gender, more-than-human agency, environmental humanities Archaeological Research Laboratory, Department of Archaeology and Classical Studies, Stockholm University Email: [email protected] CURRENT SWEDISH ARCHAEOLOGY VOL.

  • 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.

    Sligo: COUNTY GEOLOGY OF IRELAND 1 SLIGOSLIGOSLIGO AREA OF COUNTY: 1,836 square kilometres or 708 square miles COUNTY TOWN: Sligo OTHER TOWNS: Strandhill, Tobercurry, Ballymote GEOLOGY HIGHLIGHTS: Ben Bulben and Truskmore Plateau, caves and karst, vanishing lake, Carboniferous sea-floor fossils, Ice Age landforms. 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.

  • Crannogs — These Small Man-Made Islands
    PART I — INTRODUCTION 1. INTRODUCTION Islands attract attention.They sharpen people’s perceptions and create a tension in the landscape. Islands as symbols often create wish-images in the mind, sometimes drawing on the regenerative symbolism of water. This book is not about natural islands, nor is it really about crannogs — these small man-made islands. It is about the people who have used and lived on these crannogs over time.The tradition of island-building seems to have fairly deep roots, perhaps even going back to the Mesolithic, but the traces are not unambiguous.While crannogs in most cases have been understood in utilitarian terms as defended settlements and workshops for the wealthier parts of society, or as fishing platforms, this is not the whole story.I am interested in learning more about them than this.There are many other ways to defend property than to build islands, and there are many easier ways to fish. In this book I would like to explore why island-building made sense to people at different times. I also want to consider how the use of islands affects the way people perceive themselves and their landscape, in line with much contemporary interpretative archaeology,and how people have drawn on the landscape to create and maintain long-term social institutions as well as to bring about change. The book covers a long time-period, from the Mesolithic to the present. However, the geographical scope is narrow. It focuses on the region around Lough Gara in the north-west of Ireland and is built on substantial fieldwork in this area.
