The area governed by the council

Cavan County Council (Шаблон:Lang-ga) is the authority responsible for local government in County Cavan, Ireland. As a county council, it is governed by the Local Government Act 2001. The council is responsible for housing and community, roads and transportation, urban planning and development, amenity and culture, and environment. The council has 18 elected members. Elections are held every five years and are by single transferable vote. The head of the council has the title of Cathaoirleach (chairperson). The county administration is headed by a Chief Executive, Tommy Ryan. The county town is Cavan.

History

The meeting place of Cavan County Council has always been at Cavan Courthouse.

Carlow County Council was established on 1 April 1899 under the Local Government (Ireland) Act 1898 for the administrative county of County Cavan, succeeding the former judicial county of Cavan.

Before 1925, the chair of each rural district council sat as an Шаблон:Lang member of the council. Under the Local Government Act 1925, rural district councils in Ireland were abolished and their functions transferred to the county councils. In County Cavan, these were the districts of Bailieborough, Bawnboy, Castlerahan, Cavan, Enniskillen No. 2, and Mullaghoran. The number of members of the county council increased from 20 to 32.

In 1942, in an order under the Local Government Act 1941, the council was reduced to 25. This figure was restated by the Local Government Act 2001.

In 2014, following a recommendation of a Local Electoral Area Boundary Committee, the council was reduced to 18 seats. This was implemented by the Local Government Reform Act 2014. Under the same act, all town councils in Ireland were abolished and their functions transferred to the county councils. In County Cavan, these were the town councils of Belturbet, Cavan, and Cootehill.

Regional Assembly

Cavan County Council has two representatives on the Northern and Western Regional Assembly where they are part of the Border Strategic Planning Area Committee.
