MOTION NO. 18

MOTION: Councillor E. Tuffy

Amendment Ref.No.PA123- County Villages

That the following addendum be added to Amendment Re.No PA123 ( Section Ref. 3.3.23) after the words “urban design for the villages” at the end of the second paragraph. “ It will be the policy of the Council, during the term of this Development Plan, to encourage and support proposals from local communities, and community organisations such as Community Council’s, and proposals from Local Area Committees of the Council, which seek to have a Village Design Statement for a particular  village drawn up through a process involving community participation, the Heritage Council and the Council’s Planning Department”.  

REPORT:

It is considered that Section 3.3.23 of the plan, which details an objective to promote local distinctiveness and character through a Village Design Statement for each of the rural villages adequately, addresses the issue raised in the motion.   Any statement or plan produced during the lifetime of the plan will be prepared in conjunction with local communities and stakeholders. Additional wording to an already lengthy document is not considered necessary.

 

Manager’s Recommendation:

That the additional wording contained in this motion is not considered to be necessary and motion  not be adopted.
