Our client’s lands comprise a logical and sustainable extension to the City and should be zoned ZO 03 Tier 3 Residential in line with Cork County Council’s previous commitment to identify the area as a ‘Strategic Land Reserve’ (SLR 12) and the City Council’s commitment towards ‘Compact Growth’. From a strategic perspective, the proposed zoning will provide for increased population growth in an area that is well served by existing infrastructure, community facilities and public transport linkages and will promote sustainable modes of transport. The proposed site represents a significant underutilised site which adjoins an existing residential area, in close proximity to Rochestown and Douglas
