7.0 | Housing and Regeneration The Cork MASP identifies strategic housing and regeneration locations within the metropolitanarea (see tables below). These give an indication of existing initiatives and, as identified inChapter 3 of the RSES andMASP Goal 7, new initiatives must meet NPF growth targets. Achieving these target will require in-depth consideration for new locations and initiatives by each local authority.
The Cork MASP recognises the existing active land management initiatives of Cork City Council and Cork County Council, through Local Infrastructure Housing Activation Funds (LIHAF) initiatives, regeneration area masterplans (such as the North West Regeneration Area), and the Strategic Land Reserve and Housing Infrastructure Implementation Team of Cork County Council. The Cork MASP will pursue an evidence-based and tailored approach to the delivery of the right housing types, mix of tenure and typologies, in the right locations through the preparation of a Housing Need Demand Assessment (HNDA). Any future strategic residential growth areas should not compromise the delivery of more sustainable regeneration and consolidation of existing strategic sites more suitable for delivery in accordance with the Cork MASP Objectives.
It is accepted that additional sites may become available, and the Cork MASP recognises the need to be flexible to accommodate opportunities. It is required that any such opportunities be integrated with sustainable land use and transport planning as per the objectives in the CorkMASP. The Core Strategies of City and County Development Plans in the Cork Metropolitan Area will need to assess and identify these locations.
