Newry, Mourne and Down District Council has published its Local Development Plan Preferred Options Paper. The Preferred Options Paper represents the Council’s formal commencement of work on the preparation of the Local Development Plan for the district.
The Preferred Options Paper is a consultation paper designed to stimulate debate and encourage feedback on key issues of strategic significance which are likely to influence the direction of the Council’s new Local Development Plan. The Preferred Options Paper outlines the vision and strategic objectives of the Plan along with a set of key issues and associated options for addressing them.
The Preferred Options Paper document can be viewed below and associated documents will be available for download from the Council website at www.newrymournedown.org. The documents are also available to view during normal office hours at the Council’s offices in Monaghan Row, Newry and the Downshire Civic Centre, Downpatrick.
