Reordering of St. Colman's Cathedral. The proposed reordering, which is designed to meet the liturgical requirements of the Cathedral as a place of public worship, will include: a) extending the sanctuary area into the nave; b) removing and partially relocating the existing altar rails; c) creating a permanent altar on the extended sanctuary; d)providing a new cathedra facing the congregation; e) locating the vesting sacristy at the base of the tower; f) converting the Pieta Chapel to a mortuary chapel; and g) reducing the area of the predella of the altar of the Crucifixion in the south transept and the Altar of the Holy Family in the north transept. The extension of the sanctuary and the moving of the altar rails will involve lifting and relaying portions of the mosaic to the nave and sanctuary and providing additional mosaic to match the existing as required
