This area of land is to be developed for a large scale mixed used development including a school. The proposed rezoning of the school lands for Education use is considered to be appropriate. Recommendation: Change zoning of lands for the future school at Old Whitechurch Road from “ZO 2 New Residential Neighbourhoods” to “ZO 13 Education”. This site is located adjacent to the existing development boundary in this part of the City. Rezoning these lands for residential development would further erode the hinterland area that surrounds the built up part of the City, contrary to the principle of compact growth. This areas is also within the potential route corridor of the Northern Distributor Road. Recommendation: No change. The proposal sets out a large scale residential development proposal for lands that are zoned as City Hinterland. These lands were previously identified as Strategic Land Reserve (SLR) 8. There are major water services infrastructural requirements as well major local road improvements required to serve these lands. These lands are not well placed to deliver housing in the short / medium term. Rezoning these lands for residential development would further erode the hinterland area that surrounds the built up part of the City, would promote urban sprawl into rural areas and set an undesirable precedent, contrary to the principle of compact growth. Recommendation: No change.
Proposed rezoning of lands at Clogheen Cross from “ZO 10 Light Industry & Related Uses” to residential. It is not appropriate to zone these lands light industry, they should be zoned residential to support the expansion of the settlement.
