Moville Regeneration Strategy and Action Plan

DONEGAL County Council has announced the commencement of the preparation of the Moville Regeneration Strategy and Action Plan. The funding for the strategy has been allocated from the Town and Village Renewal Scheme through a funding application submitted by the Council in partnership with Moville Tidy Towns.

GM Design Associates have been engaged to prepare the strategy and to facilitate the public consultation and engagement that will be undertaken as part of the process. Liam Ward, Director of Community Development and Planning Services has welcomed the commencement of the project and said “it is important to have a Strategy to plan for the future growth and regeneration of Moville, a town of such rich historical and cultural significance. The Strategy will be very much community led and will reflect the needs of the community to deliver interventions that will encourage more people to live, work and visit the town”.
 
The key areas for regeneration in Moville will be identified through community engagement which will take the form of drop in events, targeted stakeholder engagement and submissions. The Strategy will also set out the anticipated timelines and potential funding options to deliver the specific projects identified. To date, GM Design Associates have met with some of the local groups/organisations and the first community drop in event has now been arranged for Thursday 19th September from 3pm to 8pm in the Glencrow Hall, Moville.

Speaking on behalf of the Members of the Inishowen Municipal District, Cllr. Jack Murray, Cathaoirleach, said: “I am encouraging all sectors of the community of Moville to attend the drop in event on the 19th September.”

Following the drop in event and targeted stakeholder engagement meetings, all the feedback and submissions received will be collated and a draft plan prepared.
