  • Luster Kommune Rådhuset 6868 Gaupne
    Sakshandsamar: Vår dato Vår referanse Dag Endre Stedje - 57643150, E-post: [email protected] 19.01.2015 2013/3800 - /421.3 Eline Orheim - 57643012, E-post: fmsfeor@ fylkesmannen.no Dykkar dato Dykkar referanse Oddgeir Aardal - 57643077, E-post: fmsfoaa@ fylkesmannen.no 03.11.2014 Luster kommune Rådhuset 6868 Gaupne Fråsegn til offentleg ettersyn av arealdelen til kommuneplanen med konsekvensutgreiing i Luster kommune Vi viser til oversending dagsett 03.11.2014 og til avtale om utsetting av høyringsfristen til 19.01.2015. Hovudinntrykket av planframlegget er at det er gjort eit omfattande og godt arbeid med revisjonen av arealdelen til kommuneplanen. I nokre område er det derimot lagt inn arealbruk som kjem i konflikt med nasjonale eller viktige regionale interesser. Fylkesmannen har difor måtta fremja nokre motsegner mot planframlegget. Motsegner og faglege tilrådingar i fråsegna er utheva med feit skrift. På miljøvernområdet fremjar vi motsegn mot veg 1 Prestesteinsvatnet på Sognefjellet (pkt. 4.1, s. 3-4) og veg 2 Turtagrø - Helgedalen (pkt 4.1, s. 4). Vi fremjar motsegn mot å setje ei byggjegrense etter fylkesvegen langs sjøen i LNF-områda med juridisk verknad. Dette må i så fall berre vere som ei retningslinje (pkt. 4.2, s. 5-6). Vi fremjar også motsegn mot hytteområde H7 Kjøtnes (pkt. 4.2, s. 6). Når det gjeld ANL 1 motorsportbane Leirmoøygarden krev vi (motsegn) at det i føresegnene til kommuneplanen vert teke inn at det før regulering skal gjerast ei undersøking/kartlegging av fagkunnig biolog i området. Vi tek atterhald om bruk av motsegn mot seinare reguleringsplan (pkt. 4.3, s.
