These lands are part of the proposed future lands for the North West Regional Park, which is a key regional objective as well as a long term City Development Plan objective for the North West of Cork City. Recommendation: No change. The site-specific zoning objective for “ZO 18 Landscape Preservation Zone (NW 8)” seeks to ‘increase tree coverage on the lower slopes of the hospital site and to protect and enhance the existing tree coverage at the boundary of the si te’ and to ‘explore the potential for a publicly accessible vantage point’. This site is quite prominent and elevated, with a specific stated objective to increase tree coverage on the lower slopes of the site. It is not recommended to reduce the “ZO 18 Landscape Preservation Zone” zoning. It is however proposed to zone the “ZO 01 Sustainable Residential Neighbourhood ” portion of the site to “ZO 14 Institutions and Community” as it is a major health facility and this would be the most appropriate land use zoning objective. Recommendation: Change zoning of St Mary’s Health Care Hospital campus from “ZO 01 Sustainable Residential Neighbourhood” to “ZO 14 Institutions and Community”. This is agreed and supported. However, it is recommended to only change the zoning of the area currently proposed to be zoned as “ZO 1 Sustainable Residential Neighbourhood”.
Submission from the HSE seeking the amendment of the zoning boundary at St Mary’s Health Care Campus Hospital, Gurranabraher, between the “ZO 01 Sustainable Residential Neighbourhood” and “ZO 18 Landscape Preservation Zone” zonings, to align with the exist ing tree line.
