Ulster University Planning Application Rejected
The Ulster University has said it is "deeply disappointed" after council planners rejected an application for a mixed use scheme at its Jordonstown campus.
The scheme included 600 homes to be developed as well as a research and development park.
Members of the Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council's planning committee refused to grant planning permission.
A spokesperson for Ulster University said: "The university is extremely disappointed at the refusal of its outline planning application by Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council, especially given the many months of constructive engagement with the planners that preceded this application.
"The university will now review its options on the most appropriate way forward for the development."
