Background

The review of the Sligo County Development Plan commenced on 17 April 2009, with a pre-draft consultation period lasting until 12 June 2009. In this interval, 64 submissions were received. Their contents and associated Manager’s recommendations are contained in the First Manager's Report - 2,858 kbs

 

Subsequently a Draft Plan was prepared, consisting of two volumes:
