MEETING OF DEVELOPMENT PLAN MEETING

MOTION NO. 159

MOTION: Councillor T. Costello

Chapter 3 Natural Cultural & Built Heritage 3.5.3 Architectural Conservation Areas To ensure greater awareness and sense of pride in our ACAs - Pilot a direct mail campaign with Tallaght Village and Balrothery ACAs to measure awareness and compliance with ACA guidelines - less than 250 residents / landlords to contact, so a concise project.

REPORT:

Work has already been carried out on a general information leaflet for owners and occupiers of properties within ACAs in the County.  As part of this project, more specific guidance documents for each ACA are also proposed which are aimed at owners/occupiers, along with more detailed guidance documents aimed at conservation practitioners, architects and builders/developers.  The leaflets/guidance documents will be available both in hard copy format and on the Council’s website. 

On the basis of the above, an objective should be included for the continuation and completion of work on the leaflets and guidance documents, as follows:

NCBH 20 Objective 9: ‘To continue and complete the work on information leaflets and guidance documents for owners, occupiers and practitioners within Architectural Conservation Areas.’

Recommendation

It is recommended that the motion is adopted with amendment to recognise that a project is ongoing which will satisfy the intent of the motion and for the inclusion of a new objective stating the following:

NCBH 20 Objective 9: ‘To continue and complete the work on information leaflets and guidance documents for owners, occupiers and practitioners within Architectural Conservation Areas.’
