Settlement Development Limit
|
A settlement development limit is designated as identified on Map No.
2/01 a – Ballymoney.
|
A development limit is defined for Ballymoney sufficient to meet the
town’s development needs in the period up to 2016.
The defined development limit will protect the setting of Ballymoney by
preserving the Leslie Hill woodlands and preventing development
from breaching the by-pass. It will also limit the further spread of development to
the south and west, thereby encouraging the efficient use of land. Any new
development will be able to avail itself of existing infrastructure, and ensure that it
is easily convenient to all the town’s facilities.
