This area includes a number of landscape assets including ecological areas of importance and visually important land, and it and adjoins the Douglas Estuary, a protected European Special Protection Area (SPA). A significant part of the area is subject to flooding (Flood Zone A). Development on these lands is therefore not considered appropriate. Recommendation: No change. The site located in an area identified as “Prominent and Strategic Metropolitan Greenbelt” in Figure 6.5 of the Draft Plan. This is an elevated, wooded greenfield site outside the built envelope of Rochestown, overlooking Hop Island. The proposed rezoning request is considered inappropriate in this context. Recommendation: No change. The site located in an area identified as “Prominent and Strategic Metropolitan Greenbelt” in Figure 6.5 of the Draft Plan. The lands are also backland in nature to historic low density ribbon development and are not contiguous to the built footprint of the urban envelope.
