To increase the population of Cork City in line with the Core Strategy. To deliver sustainable, liveable, safe, healthy and child-friendly communities and neighbourhoods. To ensure that new homes are provided at appropriate densities in brownfield, infill and greenfield locations within and contiguous to existing City footprint identified in the Core Strategy, and aligned with transport, community and social infrastructure. To ensure that new homes are provided with a good mix of accommodation types and sizes to meet the needs and abilities of all members of society. To achieve a higher quality of life for Cork City’s communities, promoting healthy living, wellbeing and active lifestyles. To ensure that placemaking is at the heart of all development to create attractive, accessible, liveable, well-designed, child-friendly, playful, healthy, safe, secure and welcoming, high-quality urban places. To promote the concept of a 15-minute city focused on inclusive, diverse and integrated neighbourhoods served by a range of homes, amenities, services, jobs and active and public transport alternatives. Proposals for new development will demonstrate how placemaking is at the heart of the development and how the development will contribute to the local neighbourhood.
