Chief Executive’s Response & Recommendation
It is submitted that clause (g) of Objective 11.7 Traveller Accommodation is so broad as to have the potential to frustrate any development which underpins the provision of Traveller accommodation in the city. The clause states: ‘The proposed development will not cause any adverse visual impacts.’
422
It is agreed that this test (“… any adverse visual impacts should be amended so as not to present an unreasonable impediment to necessary housing developments. Recommendation: Amend Objective 11.7 Traveller Accommodation clause (g) as follows: g. The proposed development will not cause any undue adverse visual impacts. The correct use of capitalisation for “Traveller” will be used – any errors in the Draft Plan in this regard are typographical errors which will be corrected. Recommendation: Correct typographical errors to ensure correct use of capitalisation for “Traveller”. Objective 3.13 specifically requires comprehensive and conclusive demonstrable economic or social need to live in a rural area. This is in line with national planning guidelines and the National Planning Framework. Recommendation: No change.
The recognition of the use of capitalised “Traveller” is welcomed. This has been missed in a few sections.
436
It is submitted that clause (c) of Objective 3.1. Rural- Generated Housing be amended to include a provision that applicants for housing under this objective must demonstrate that the dwelling will prevent the need to commute to the location rather than result in commuting from the dwelling.
414
Paragraph 11.145 Residential Entrances / Parking in Front Gardens is welcomed.

This support is acknowledged. Recommendation: No change.
