Pay and Display is the main type of parking available within Galway City. You purchase a ticket from a pay and display ticket machine in advance that entitles you to park on designated city streets or public car parks, for a set duration of time.
The City Council may issue parking permits to facilitate people who are 'Residents' of Pay and Display Areas. Eligible residents may apply for the following types of parking permit:
Resident's Permit
Visitor's Permit
Carer's Permit
To apply for planning permission you must complete a planning application and submit it, together with the required documents and the appropriate fee, to the planning department of the local authority to which your application relates.
There are many facilities for playing football, soccer and rugby in Galway City and these facilities are subject to a Galway City Council Letting Agreement with local sports clubs.
The purpose of pre-planning consultation is to afford applicants the opportunity to seek advice from the Planning Authority on a proposed development. This advice can include indicating the relevant objectives and policies of the Development Plan that have a bearing on the decision of the application.
