The Lisburn Area Plan 2001

The Lisburn Area Plan 2001 remains the statutory development plan for a small portion of Belfast district around Dunmurry following council boundary changes and the quashing of BMAP. It was adopted on 4 July 2001 to establish physical development policies up to 2001.

The change in council boundary as a result of the local government reform on 1 April 2015, and the subsequent quashing of BMAP, means that the Lisburn Area Plan 2001 remains the statutory development plan for a small portion of Belfast's district around Dunmurry. Adopted on 4 July 2001, the Lisburn Area Plan sought to establish physical development policies for Lisburn and its surroundings up to 2001. However, as work on the development of BMAP had commenced at the time of adoption, an element of provision had been incorporated so that the area's reasonable housing development needs could continue to be met with some certainty until such time as the successor BMAP was in place.
