Hello and
Welcome
Introduction
Welcome to our Pre-Application Community Consultation (PACC) relating to our proposals for a residential led mixed use development of DK07 zoned housing lands comprising c. 1100 dwellings, local neighbourhood facilities, school site (subject to need), new distributor road linking the site from Saul Road to Ballyhornan Road, including the retention of existing wetlands and pondage area and all associated site works including parking, pedestrian link, cycleway, open space provision and landscaping at lands between Saul Road and Ballyhornan Road, located directly south of No. 16 Ardfern Park, Downpatrick, BT30 6XZ and directly east of No. 29 Brackenridge, Downpatrick, BT30 6SP.
Purpose of Consultation and Next Steps
The purpose of this consultation is to share our indicative proposals with the community and other interested parties, prior to the submission of a Full Planning Application to Newry, Mourne & Down District Council.
We are committed to engaging with members of the wider community and are now undertaking a period of pre-application community consultation (PACC) on our proposals.
The feedback received will be shared with the design team and will help to shape our proposals prior to the submission of a planning application. We will prepare a Pre-Application Community Consultation Report which will provide a summary of all feedback, our response and how we have incorporated any appropriate feedback into the final proposals for the scheme. This report will be submitted as part of the Full Planning Application to Newry, Mourne & Down District Council.
