  • 1998 - 2002

  I joined Donegal County Council direct from UCD at the beginning of the construction boom. From 1998 to 2002 I was the Planner responsible for development management in the Milford Electoral Area. This principally involved the processing of planning applications and managing and overseeing the work of other professional planners. During his time with the Council I assessed and managed planning applications for large-scale and sometimes contentious residential, tourism and telecommunications projects. Other key tasks involved liaising with the Elected Officials and members of the general public on planning matters including the presentation of Draft Plans at public meetings. Show less
