MEETING OF DEVELOPMENT PLAN MEETING

MOTION NO. 58

MOTION: Councillor E. Ó Broin

Insert the following at the end of H17 Objective 1

subject to consultation with existing communities and other stakeholders.

REPORT:

There is no scope or opportunity for Planning Authorities to engage in consultation with third parties with regards to planning applications on privately owned lands under the Planning and Development Legislation, other than the provision for third parties to make submissions and observations.

It is a statutory requirement to carry out consultation with third parties and communities and stakeholders under the statutory plan making process and the motion could be amended to reflect this and also require such consultation to be carried out under non statutory plans.

Recommendation

It is recommended that this motion is adopted with amendment.

Insert the following sentence at the end of H17 Objective 1:

Where this is proposed under a Local Area Plan or other Plan, this shall be subject to consultation with existing communities and other stakeholders.
