Recommendation: See submission 28.

Proposed rezoning of land at Ardrostig from “ZO 10 Light Industry and Related Uses” to “ZO 11 Business and Technology”.

It is considered that the “ZO 10 Light Industry and Related Uses” zoning reflects more accurately the existing land uses in this area. Recommendation: No change. This site is located in an area identified as “Prominent and Strategic Metropolitan Greenbelt” in Figure 6.5 of the Plan. This is a greenfield site between Ballincollig and the western City suburbs. There is no justification to zone these lands at this time, as zoning these lands is not consistent with the Compact Liveable Growth strategy set out in the Draft Plan. The zoning of this site at this time could promote lower-density development with associated negative impacts on climate change, green and blue infrastructure management, the need for new physical and social infrastructure, and the successful delivery of a compact, vibrant city of neighbourhoods. Recommendation: No change.
