Wednesday, June 1st, 2011 | Poster under Uncategorized

Thanks to all who attended our first introduction to sustainability workshop with Fingal County council planners on May 31st. It was quite a cycle from Ranelagh but thoroughly enjoyed the ideas and enthusiasm of the group.  You can download the presentation used on the day below.  Check out the presenter notes for more detail on each slide.  I’ve also included details of some resources to look up at your leisure, some of which relate directly to planning.  I’ve also recommended some books for the especially eager.  Don’t hesitate to contact me if you’ve any questions and please feel free to leave comments or testimonials below, Thanks  john@realeyes.ie
