Cork, comprises the construction of 70 no. residential units, and 149 no. parking spaces together with associated communal landscape area and all associated works on a site which is in the ownership of Cork City Council.             

The development site area is approximately 2.18 hectares.  The site is located at Poulavone, Ballincollig, Co. Cork with access via Hawthorn Avenue and Sweetbriar Grove.

The proposed works include the construction of:

  • 18 apartments in 6 no. three storey blocks, comprising
    • 3 no. 1-bed ground floor (specially adapted) apartments
    • 3 no. 2-bed ground floor apartments
    • 12 no. 2-bed first floor duplexes

  • Associated site works including new roads, car parking, underground services, drainage systems, watermains and connections.

 In accordance with the Habitats Directive, an Appropriate Assessment (AA) Screening has been carried out on the project, in relation to any potential impacts upon the Cork Harbour Special Protection Area [Site No. 004030] and the Great Island Channel Special Area of Conservation [Site No. 001058]. The findings of the AA screening noted that no significant effects on any Natura 2000 sites is likely and it was not necessary to undertake any further stage of the Appropriate Assessment process.

In addition, the proposed development has been screened to determine whether an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is required and it has been concluded that there will be no real likelihood of significant effects on the environment arising from the proposed development and that an EIA is not required.
