That IE8 Objective 6 be deleted from the, having regard to the proposal to retain the existing employment land use zoning at Baldonnell Business Park (see previous Motion) on lands within the Department of Defence Security Zone, and instead revert to the relevant existing text which forms part of Variation No 2 in the 2010-2016 County Development Plan with specific reference to the Security Zone.

The inclusion of this relevant text, as included in the current Development Plan through Variation No. 2, will allow for a clear balance to be struck between allowing the Planning Authority to consider appropriate development on existing zoned land, and the maintenance of appropriate security at Casement Aerodrome, which will allow for the future proper planning and sustainable development of the area.

This motion to be considered in the context of Variation No 2 of the 2010-2016 County Development Plan in relation to the security zone at Baldonnell Aerodrome being drafted with the participation and considerations from the Elected members, Department of Defence and the Minister of Defence and indeed considered by the Citizens of the County through the Consolation process in that Plan.
