MEETING OF DEVELOPMENT PLAN MEETING

MOTION NO.

MOTION: Councillor F. Timmons

RETENTION of 2016 Policy H1 Objective 4: To promote social integration and facilitate a diverse range of dwelling tenures within housing developments, including social housing in a balanced way in all Local Electoral Areas of the County.

REPORT:

This motion seeks to retain Policy H1 Objective 4 of the 2016 County Development Plan which states ‘to promote social integration and facilitate a diverse range of dwelling tenures within housing developments, including social housing in a balanced way in all Local Electoral Areas of the County.’

It is considered that the principal of Policy H1 Objective 4 is reflected under H1 Objective 14 of the CE Draft Plan which states ‘Support the provision of a mix of tenure types across the County in creating suitable accommodation for all and discourage undue segregation and over proliferation of a single tenure within any local area (within a 10-minute walking distance) in line with the Apartment Guidelines and the provision of the Housing Strategy and Interim HNDA or any subsequent future Regional based HNDA’

However, the objective could be amended to include Local Electoral Area after the brackets.

Recommendation

It is recommended that this motion is adopted with amendment to amend the existing objective H1 Objective 14:

H1 Objective 14 seeks ‘Support the provision of a mix of tenure types across the County in creating suitable accommodation for all and discourage undue segregation and over proliferation of a single tenure within any local area (within a 10-minute walking distance) or Local Electoral Area, in line with the Apartment Guidelines and the provision of the Housing Strategy and Interim HNDA or any subsequent future Regional based HNDA’
