As a member of Lets Play Cork, the River Lee Placemaking group and Eccowell Cork, I support the submission made by Meitheal Mara, CRK-C155-DEV21-65, to zone a dedicated site for community access and engagement with our biggest outdoor recreation space in Cork - the River Lee.

Currently there are no accessible community river amenities in the City. This Plan is an opportunity to address this deficit and the proposal by Meitheal Mara would achieve this.

Green and Blue Infrastructure

The draft CDP does not include an objective for a Maritime Activities Centre directly but does refer to provision for multi-use sport/ recreational hubs (Objective 6.20); new active recreational infrastructure to improve access to the river at City Docks; encouraging water-based leisure activities and land site facilities such as rowing, light craft and swimming at City Docks (Objectives 10.20 and 10.30); and to working with stakeholders to facilitate safe, improved accessibility to the water, including the River Lee (Objective 6.3). There are also objectives on the provision of socially inclusive, multi-functional and diverse community facilities and to promote the co-location and sharing of community, enterprise, recreation and open space infrastructure to create community hubs (Objectives 3.14 and 3.17).
