Publication of Draft Plan Revision And Public Exhibition


The Magherafelt Area Plan 2015 is a development plan being prepared under the provisions of Part III of the Planning (NI) Order 1991. Following the publication of the Magherafelt Area Plan 2015 Draft Plan in April 2004, the Department invited representations and objections over a 6 week period ending on 9 June 2004.

In order to address a number of errors published in the Draft Plan, the Department intends to revise the following Plan Proposals:

• Designation COU 1 Magherafelt Green Belt
• Designation COU 2 Maghera Green Belt
• Designation COU 3 Sperrin Countryside Policy Area
• Designation COU 4 Eastern Countryside Policy Area
• Designation COU 8 Dispersed Rural Community

A Draft Plan Revision will be published on 10 May 2005, consisting of the following:

• A Revision Statement;
• Map No 1 (Revised) – Countryside; and
• Map No 76 (Revised) – Carntogher Dispersed Rural Community.

The revised maps will supersede the respective original maps published in
April 2004.


Sites of Local Nature Conservation Importance and Areas of Constraint on Mineral Developments


The Magherafelt Area Plan 2015 is a development plan being prepared under the provisions of Part III of the Planning (NI) Order 1991. Following the publication of
the Magherafelt Area Plan 2015 Draft Plan in April 2004, the Department invited representations and objections over a 6 week period ending on 9 June 2004.

It has come to light that a number of individual maps relating to Sites of Local
Nature Conservation Importance and Area of Constraint on Mineral Developments
shown on Map No. 1 – Countryside in the Draft Plan were inadvertently omitted from
Part 3 of the Plan.

These Maps are numbered 26, 27, 30, 31, 34, 35, 38 and 39 and relate to Sites
of Local Nature Conservation Importance and Area of Constraint on Mineral Developments at Derrynoyd Bridge,Derrynoyd Wood, Drumard Water, Drumbally Hill, Drumlamph Road, Drumlamph Wood, Fallylea and Glenviggan Bog.

Copies of these maps can be viewed online from the Magherafelt Area Plan 2015 Map Library and are available on request from the Divisional Planning Office using the above address.
