The Planning and Building Committee of Hafnarfjörður approved at its meeting on 09.02.2018 to advertise a proposal for an amended detailed plan for the plots at Lækjargata 2 and Suðurgata 7 in accordance with 1. subsection 43.01 of the Planning Act no. 123/2010. This is a change to the 'Hafnarfjörður City Centre' detailed plan.
The amendment to the detailed plan entails that on the plot at Lækjargata 2, where “Dvergurinn” previously stood, five buildings will be permitted, along with a shared car park in the basement. The plot boundaries on the street-facing sides will be shifted, and a right of way for pedestrians will be established onto the plot from Brekkugata. The land use of the plot will remain unchanged and will be in accordance with the Hafnarfjörður Master Plan 2013–2025. Residential, retail and service uses are proposed for the site. The easement for parking on the plot to the east of 7 Suðurgata will be removed, as will the easement for access to the northernmost part of the plot. In its place, an easement for a footpath will be established. The easement for offices on the 2nd floor of Suðurgata 7, in the “Góðtemplarahúsið”, will be cancelled, and it will be permitted to install windows and doors on the east side of the building. The plot east of Suðurgata 7 will become an open public space.
The proposal will be on display at the Hafnarfjörður Service Centre, Strandgata 6, and at the Environmental and Planning Service, Norðurhellu 2, from 9 May to 20 June 2018, and here on the website.
Those who consider themselves to have an interest are given the opportunity to make comments on the amendment, which must be submitted in writing to the Environmental and Planning Services of Hafnarfjörður Municipality no later than 20 June 2018. Those who do not submit comments on the amendment within the specified deadline will be deemed to have consented to it.
