5. Establishing the framework conditions and guiding principles for the development of Hooijdonk 1a
The applicant has submitted a preliminary request to carry out the subdivision of an existing farmhouse located at Hooijdonk 1a. The subdivision will take place entirely within the existing structure. The farmhouse is situated in an area of cultural and historical significance. The applicant has investigated whether the property can be designated as a site of cultural and historical significance. However, since no new properties are being added to the municipal list of culturally and historically valuable properties, this initiative is being treated as a standard residential subdivision. The initiative was discussed at the process, intake, and environmental review meetings. It was concluded that the initiative is desirable, provided that clear preconditions and principles are established regarding, among other things, heritage, landscape, water, traffic, and sustainability. It is recommended that, subject to these preconditions, cooperation be granted in principle for the development.
The Municipal Executive decides:
- to support the preliminary application for the development of the Hooijdonk 1a site;
- to adopt the “Preconditions and Principles for the Development of Hooijdonk 1a” regarding the conversion of an existing farmhouse into residential units;
- to inform the initiator in writing of these preconditions and guiding principles and to request that they submit a detailed plan that addresses these requirements.
