Chief Executive’s Response & Recommendation
This submission refers to the negative impact of a proposed priority bus route within existing ACA in St Luke’s area.
320
The provision of bus lanes and designation of one way streets, etc. is an operational matter and cannot be considered as part of the preparation of the City Development Plan. These issues can be raised with the NTA as part of the current public consultation process that is ongoing for the new Cork City bus network. Recommendation: No change. The aim of ACA designation is not to prevent development, rather to guide sensitive, good quality development, which will enhance both the historical character of the area and the amenity of those who enjoy it. Blarney village is of national heritage significance. The intention behind the expansion of the ACA designation is in recognition of the significance of the place nationally and to ensure that any modern development is designed to support the historic character of the area. This will allow for modern development but ensure that it is of quality. Recommendation: No change. The full implementation of Objective 8.23 as set out in Chapter 8 is a matter for the development management planning processes. Recommendation: No change. Blarney village is of national heritage significance. The intention behind the expansion of the ACA designation is in recognition of the significance of the place nationally and to ensure that any modern development is designed to
Remove or modify the designation for proposed modified ACA in Blarney.
