LECP Partner logo - Be InvolvedHelp shape your Community’s future and participate in the Local Economic and Community Plan for Fingal

As you may be aware, in the future, Fingal County Council will have an enhanced role in both economic and community development. This follows from the Local Government Reform Act of 2014. Fingal County Council is now developing a Local Economic and Community Plan to guide the integrated economic and community development of the County over the coming years.

To ensure that we target actions that both stimulate economic growth and impact positively on all communities in the county, Fingal County Council invites you to contribute suggestions as to how we might achieve this. The consultation framework invites you to make a contribution under two distinct themes. Ultimately the plan will be formulated to incorporate the findings of the consultation. Uniquely, these findings will be presented as a fully integrated series of actions, bridging economic and community activity.

The Plan will set out an overall strategy for the proper planning and sustainable development of the County for the six-year period 2017- 2023. The legal timeframe for the making of a Development Plan is 99 weeks.

Fingal County Council would like to have your organisation's participation from the beginning as the issues being considered affect everyone living, working or operating a business in Fingal.
