The Plan distinguishes between sites that are suitable for general industrial purposes and other sites, which are suitable for more specialist business purposes.
Industrial Zonings CEI 10
The following sites are zoned for industrial business development, subject to compliance with the key site requirements and other requirements for the development of each site consistent with relevant planning policy including current Planning Policy Statements and the specific considerations related to the submission of planning applications:
Industrial Zoning CEI 10 Ballycastle Road Industrial Site (5.6 ha.)
Key Site Requirements
  1. All new development shall provide a high quality of layout and design, with a range of elevational treatment of buildings.
  2. An 8 metre wide belt of trees of native species shall be planted along the south west and south east boundaries.
  3. The access shall either be from Hillman’s Way or from Lower Newmills Road. No access shall be permitted from the Ring Road.
This zoning adjoins a long established industrial estate with a number of major employers and is suitable for general industrial, business and warehousing purposes. The balance of the industrial zoning of the previous plan is retained.
