PLANNING SERVICE Submitted the Divisional Planning Service’s report dated 8 June 2004 (copy circulated to each 185/6/2004 Member). The following applications were taken into special consideration:- 7.1 Councillor G C Shiels enquired from the Chief Executive if there was any comeback from the Department about the format of the planning schedule. 7.1.1 In reply, the Chief Executive advised that he had spoken to the Divisional Planning Manager on the matter and that she was reluctant to change. 7.1.2 Councillor Rev Dr R T Wm McCrea stated that he had also spoken to Mrs O’Toole on the matter and had told her that it would have be courteous to have consulted with the Council on the proposed changes to the format of the schedule. He said that there was one major difficulty in that those applications that had been deferred could slip off the schedule, as the Department had decided not to produce a list of those “applications still under consideration”. He requested that a written request concerning this matter be forwarded to the Divisional Planning Manager and a copy be sent to Mr David Ferguson, the Chief Executive of the Planning Service. 7.1.3 Councillor Shiels suggested that the current situation was very convenient for the Planning Service and the Council was being brought under their cloak. 7.2 New Applications: H/2001/0977/O – Marald Developments It was noted that whilst the Planning opinion was approval there was one objection. Councillor P H McErlean requested that the application be deferred for one month. Councillor O T Hughes requested that in allowing one month, he proposed that if there was no additional information, (no contact or new evidence) the Planning Service should issue an approval. He said that the application had sat for a period of three years and he felt any further delay would be unfair to the applicant. 7 Councillor Miss K A Lagan warned the Members that they should be careful of the one objection which should not be taken lightly in case of court action. Councillor Rev McCrea stated that if this was the first time that the application had appeared on the planning schedule and the objector had a right to be heard. He said also, that if there was potential court action it could not be resolved in one month. Councillor Hughes stated that Planning thought that the problem could be overcome but instead there had been a time-delay on this application since 19 November 2001. Councillor Miss Lagan said that the objector probably thought that the application would be a refusal so there was no need to go to court. Councillor McErlean said that he was led to believe that it was not the objector that was taking court-action. The Chief Executive enquired if the problem was ownership of sight splays.

    MID ULSTER Addendum - Position Paper – Public Utilities Revised WWTW Capacity Figures January 2019 1.0 Introduction 1.1 The purpose of this paper is to provide an update on some of the information used in the Position Paper on Public Utilities, which was compiled in May 2015 and in the Preferred Options Paper (POP) that was published in November 2016. 1.2 The original position paper was intended to inform the newly established council on the provision and spare capacity of our public utilities in order to assist judgements on the allocation of housing growth and other development in the new Local Development Plan (LDP). This paper provides information specifically in relation to WWTW capacity and networks serving our district following receipt of updated information and figures from NI Water. 2.0 WWTW Capacity Figures 2.1 NI Water is responsible for the provision of sewerage throughout Mid Ulster. Mid Ulster District will need approximately 10,950 new houses by 20301 therefore, it is important that we understand the impact that these new homes may have on the capacity of the sewage network throughout Mid Ulster. 2.2 While preparing the original position paper, only information for the capacity of WWTW were included for the Magherafelt area. The information contained within the Cookstown and Dungannon plans relating to the capacity of WwTW was collected from the relevant authority some time prior to the preparation of the paper and due to the passage of time could not be included in the paper. NI Water have since provided new information about the capacity of WWTW in Mid Ulster.
