Increase residential land supply by amending Maps 04 & 10 to change 0.75 hectares of land zoned Landscape Preservation Zone (NW13) in the draft Cork City Development Plan, 2022-2028 to ZO 02 New Residential Neighbourhood.
The lands are owned by the principals of Walsh Group and Cadogan’s Strand Limited and a draft apartment scheme has been prepared with a view to delivering development on these serviced lands in the short term.
This submission is made in the context of concerns regarding the prospects of the City Council delivering housing and employment within the lifetime of the Plan without harnessing alternative private sector supported initiatives on sustainably located, serviced lands.
This submission also has regard to, and adopts much of the same rationale used by the City Council in bringing forward ‘Variations’ to the existing Cork City Development Plan, 2015.
The case in support of the proposed amendment is described in more detail in the attached submission.
