The purpose of the LAP will be to set out an integrated land use, transportation and urban design framework to facilitate the future redevelopment of the area. As a first step, the City Council is inviting all stakeholders and interested parties including local residents, institutions and businesses to identify what issues they feel need to be addressed in the plan, and how the area should be redeveloped. Tivoli is a site of 61.5 hectares, located on the northern bank of the River Lee, approximately 2.5 kilometres east of the City Centre. The site measures 2.5km in length (including the Port of Cork Millennium 2000 Park); with a river frontage of 3km. It is bounded by the Cork-Cobh rail-line, the N8/ Lower Glanmire Road to the north, the River Lee to the south, and the Glashaboy River to the east. 4 TIVOLI LOCAL AREA PLAN ISSUES PAPER 5 Blackpool THE LOCAL AREA PLAN PROCESS Glanmire The Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended) and Planning and Development Regulations 2001 (as amended) set out the basis for a Local Area Plan and the legal requirements of the plan-making process. The Local Area Plan Guidelines (DECLG, 2012) set out the stages to a Local Area Plan process. Ballyvolane Following this consultation period and having regard to the issues raised by stakeholders, the Council will prepare a draft Local Area Plan. The publication of the draft plan will mark the beginning of the statutory plan making process, (duration of at least 18 weeks). ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT It is important that the implementation of the policies and objectives of a Local Tivoli Area Plan would not have adverse impacts on the receiving environment and that North Docks this principle is incorporated into the plan-making process. The City Council is required to carry out the following assessments in parallel to the statutory plan- Marina Park making process: City Centre South Docks Blackrock • Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) Strategic Environmental Assessment is a process for evaluating at the earliest appropriate stage, the likely environmental effects of implementing a plan or other strategic action in order to ensure that environmental considerations are appropriately addressed in the decision making process both during the preparation and prior to the adoption of the plan. • Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) Mahon The Strategic Flood Risk Assessment forms part of the Strategic Environmental Assessment and is required to be carried out in accordance with the “The Planning System and Flood Risk Management,” Guidelines for Planning Authorities (2009) . As part of the Strategic Environmental Assessment process for the City Development Plan 2015 - 2021, Cork City Council has previously carried out a Strategic Flood Risk Assessment for the City including Tivoli. The SFRA recommendation was that the said lands did not satisfy all the criteria of the Justification Test and therefore the Local Douglas Area Plan will be required to be informed by a detailed flood risk assessment and/ or flood risk management measures as a prerequisite to any future development. Figure 1.1 Cork’s Key Development Areas • Appropriate Assessment (AA) Appropriate Assessment is an iterative process which runs parallel to and informs the plan making process to determine whether or not the implementation of plan policies could have negative consequences for the protected habitats, (Natura 2000 sites) or plant and animal species for which these sites are designated. Appropriate Assessment is a requirement under the EU Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC) and EU Birds Directive (79/409/EEC) and Section 177U of the Planning and Development Acts 2000 - 2016. 6 TIVOLI LOCAL AREA PLAN ISSUES PAPER 7 Figure 2.1 Tivoli mudflats prior to reclaimation.

The Plan is set within the strategic framework established by National and Regional plans, policies and guidelines.

  • Port of Cork Company (POCC) Comments on the Draft National Planning Framework (NPF)
    Port of Cork Company (POCC) Comments on the Draft National Planning Framework (NPF) Introduction The Port Of Cork Company (POCC) welcome the opportunity to provide comments for consideration to the Draft National Planning Framework (NPF). The POCC is very supportive of the NPF initiative. POCC acknowledge that the Draft NPF is supportive of Port requirements and has considered many aspects of the POCC original submission. Nonetheless, minor amendments and / or additions to the Draft NPF would provide further clarity on policies and initiatives required to facilitate sustainable growth of critical strategic port related development and the potential of maritime economic and leisure activities. The Port of Cork is a key asset in facilitating national and regional growth and can positively contribute to the objectives identified in Cork 2050 and the NPF. POCC Strategic Plan has identified future port locations in Cork’s lower harbour, as follows: . Ringaskiddy . Marino Point . Cobh . Aghada / Whitegate Consent is in place for the redevelopment of Ringaskiddy to accommodate container activities, and in the longer-term Roll-on Roll-off freight trade. However, further investment in port facilities in the Cork Harbour and associated infrastructure is required to support the objectives of the Draft NPF for the sustainable growth of Cork and its region. There is also a need for further policy support to facilitate port related development; realise Ireland’s full maritime potential; and streamline maritime and port related development consent procedures. Submission Request - Overview POCC request that the draft NPF is amended to facilitate the full potential of Port Infrastructure and activities; support the upper harbour redevelopment lands in Cork; and facilitate Maritime Resources as key growth enablers for the Southern Region.
