Notice is hereby given pursuant to Section 13 of the Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended) that Kilkenny County Council, being the Planning Authority for the area, proposes to VARY the Kilkenny City and County Development Plan 2021 – 2027 in order to clarify the settlement hierarchy in relation to small settlements.

These changes primarily affect Chapter 4 Core Strategy, however the changes will be made wherever the terms appear throughout the CCDP.
