Let’s Develop Our Vision For Our Community Consultation

There are two plans being developed at present – both interlinked. These are the Co Wicklow Local Economic and Community Plan (LECP) and the Co Wicklow PPN Vision for Community Wellbeing Statement.

The LECP will drive a series of goals and actions to lead an interagency approach to economic development and supporting community resilience in the county. The plan covers areas such as the regeneration of towns and villages, the promotion and mainstreaming of equality, building on our strengths and natural resources for economic development, supporting enterprise and innovation.

The second plan, the Co Wicklow PPN Vision for Community Wellbeing Statement, reflects the views and priorities of communities and is seen as a good measure of how well we as communities are doing. The consultation will help the PPN to monitor and identify actions that can lead to stronger and more resilient communities. It will also help the PPN to participate in decision making in the county.

The first step is to seek the public’s views. These will feed into both plans where relevant. Therefore we need people to tell us what they consider to be important priorities based on, but not exclusive to:

Economy and Resources – Economic Development, Enterprise and Job Creation

Social and Community Development

Environment and Sustainability

Health (Physical and Mental)

Values Culture & Meaning

Participation Democracy and Good Governance
