He drew Members attention to the Ethical Framework for Local Government and Members responsibilities thereunder.    

Ms. P.R. Gallagher outlined to the meeting the role of the elected Members and stated that deciding whether to adopt or to propose amendments to the Draft Plan is a function reserved for the elected members of Sligo County Council. 

On foot of the submissions received, and on review of the content of the Draft CDP and Draft RPS, the Manager has recommended a number of material (i.e. significant) alterations to the draft. If the members decide that these, or other material alterations should be made to the Draft Plan, the proposed amendments must go on public display for a period of four weeks.

All submissions received during the final public consultation phase will be summarised in a Third Manager’s Report. Having considered the proposed amendments and the Manager’s recommendations on the issues raised, the Members will then finally adopt the Development Plan. The new Sligo County Development Plan 2011-2017 must be adopted at least four weeks before the current CDP 2005-2011 expires. The new Plan must be adopted by the end of March 2011.

TO CONSIDER THE  DRAFT SLIGO COUNTY DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2011-2017 AND THE SECOND MANAGER’S REPORT ON SUBMISSIONS AND OBSERVATIONS RECEIVED, RELATING TO THE DRAFT SLIGO COUNTY DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2011-2017:

Ms. M. Davidescu, Acting Senior Executive Planner stated the following:

The Border Regional Planning Guidelines allocated 195 hectares of housing land to County Sligo based on an estimated population increase of circa 3,421 persons between 2010 and 2016.  Population growth scenarios were produced by the CSO at national and regional level and the RPGs distributed the regional population growth to the Border counties on a proportional basis.  Given the current economic situation, the RPG estimated population growth rates are considered over-optimistic.  There are 358 hectares of Greenfield zoned for housing in the County and this has to be decreased to 195 hectares.  Average residential densities are to be increased from approximately 4 units per hectares to 11 units per hectare.

Members referred to the Senior Counsel Advice received from Micheál Ó’Scanaill dated 14th January, 2011 regarding the adoption of the Development Plan and outlined their concerns over same.  Ms. M. Davidescu answered Members queries in relation to compliance with the legal requirement of complying with a “core strategy that shall show that the development objectives in the development plan are consistent, as far as practicable, with national and regional development objectives set out in the National Spatial Strategy and regional planning guidelines”. 
In referring to Department Circular letter of 4th February 2010 which indicates the options available in dealing with over-provision of zoned land. She also stated that Option 1 and Option 2, the re-zoning and de-zoning of lands were utilised when devising the plan but Option 3, the Strategic Land Reserve option was left for the Members to use if they wished.  It was felt that this option would give people false hopes of having their lands developed and so was not entered into.  She also reminded Members of the importance of being compliant with Regional Planning Guidelines at all times throughout the process.

SECTION 1.RESPONSES TO GENERAL ISSUES RAISED IN SUBMISSIONS :

Mr H. Kearns, County Manager stated that since the last County Development Plan was adopted there had been huge changes to the market, there were new population growth rates which were set which he doubted Sligo could meet, there was huge problems with waste water treatment plants capacity levels.  Since Sligo were the first County whose plan was up for review in 2011 and given the new legislation to be adhered to in preparing the plan, there was no precedent set in other counties that could be referred to.  Under guidelines, Sligo must keep within the 195 hectares of housing land to be zoned.  Despite Members concerns regarding the issue of dezoning of development lands, because of the collapse in the market, there was every possibility that during the lifetime of this plan it would make no difference due to the ongoing and future market weakness.

Mr H. Kearns, County Manager stated this issue was an extremely complex issue and from the recent High Court Case on Lissadell 7 different parameters were used in the determination of public rights of way and for this to be done for the whole of the County of Sligo would not be possible in just 2 years with the current embargo on staff recruitment and the nature of the request.
