Local Development Plan document library

Local Development Plan document Library

In accordance with the Planning Act (Northern Ireland) 2011 and The Planning (Local Development Plan) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2015, the council is required to make, publish and provide access to the documents that form part of the Local Development Plan and supporting Evidence Base.

The documentation that forms part of the Local Development Plan (LDP) process has been brought together within this Document Library. To assist the navigation the library has been arranged to reflect the different chronological stages of the LDP development with an Additional Documents section for the information that forms part of the broader processes. This Document Library will therefore continue to evolve as the plan development progresses.

The main sections for this library are:

• Adoption of Plan Strategy (May 2023)
• Post Examination Modification including Draft SPG Consultation Report
• Independent Examination
• Submission of Draft Plan Strategy to the Department for Infrastructure
• Consultations and Draft Plan Strategy Representations
• Draft Plan Strategy Publication 
• Preferred Options Paper (POP) Publication and Consultation
• Updated versions of the evidence base documents
