This site is located outside the 2017 Cobh Municipal District Local Area Plan boundary for Glanmire. While there was a planning permission on this site for 2 houses, there is no justification at this time to zoned this land for residential use or include it within the Glanmire development boundary. While the site is not located within a flood zone, there is a stream on site that flows into the Glashaboy River. Recommendation: No change These lands are zoned ‘Open Space, Sports, Recreation and Amenity’ in the 2017 Cobh Municipal District Local Area Plan with the following objective (GM-O- 01) “Open Space. This prominent slope makes a significant contribution to the setting of Glanmire. There is a presumption against development on these lands because of the importance of the hillside to the setting of the area.” These lands are proposed to be zoned “ZO 18 Landscape Preservation Zone” in the Draft Plan. This is an elevated site with landscape value to create habitats for biodiversity and to create ecological corridors for the movement of species, as well as contributing to the setting of Glanmire. There is no justification for changing this zoning at this time. Recommendation: No change.
Proposed rezoning of lands at Sallybrook, Glanmire from “ZO 18 Landscape Preservation Zone” to “ZO 02 New Residential Neighbourhoods”.
