The City Council is commencing the process of preparing the new Dublin City Development Plan. This plan will detail how our city looks, feels and provides services and amenities for its citizens. It will also determine safe green sustainable strategies for Dublin as a city to live and work in.
This plan will be completed within the next 2 years. To inform the process, the City council has developed an Issues Paper which is available to view in all public libraries and Area Offices. It details the following issues for consideration by Dubliners who live and work in the Dublin City area:
- Shaping the City
- Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation
- City and Regional Economy
- Movement and Transport
- Population and Housing
- Sustainable Environment and Infrastructure
- Green Infrastructure, Landscape, Open Space & Recreation
- Retailing
- Culture and heritage
- Community Infrastructure & Social Inclusion
- Environment
Once developed all planning applications will have to adhere to the direction of the plan.
