The overriding aim of the strategy is to create the appropriate conditions necessary to foster a healthy and vibrant retailing environment in County Monaghan over the period of the strategy. It does so through policy recommendations which are framed in the context of national and regional plans, strategies and guidelines. The strategy provides important information on the quantum, scale and types of retail development required over the period to 2022. 1.2 Methodology This strategy has been prepared following an economic downturn and currently at a stage of modest economic upturn. For this reason there is a need for flexibility with regard to the quantum floorspace. The current retail climate is uncertain and has undergone extensive change in the way people make purchases. Traditional shopping areas have high vacancy rates and difficulties with access
