MEETING OF DEVELOPMENT PLAN MEETING

MOTION NO.

MOTION: Councillor Joanna Tuffy

That the park on Esker Hill (between Brookvale and Esker Lawns) be the subject of an objective to develop as an open space/public park for the benefit of all surrounding estates including the aforementioned.

REPORT:

The land referred to in the motion is in private ownership and comprises open space that was required to be provided as part of a planning permission. It is currently accessible by the public.  As such, it is considered that a more appropriate wording for the objective would be:

‘To retain the open character of the existing open space area on Esker Hill (between Brookvale and Esker Lawns)’

Recommendation

It is recommended that the motion is adopted with amendment to include a new objective COS 5 Objective 23 (or as may be renumbered) to state:

‘To retain the open character of the existing open space area on Esker Hill (between Brookvale and Esker Lawns)’.
