Coldcut, Finnstown Castle, Edmundsbury .
Any decision to rezone these High Amenity Lands goes against 2 major EU directives : We have only reduced our emissions by 5% since 1990 while the rest of Europe have reduced by 40% And we have to seriously address climate change to avoid the crippling fines that will be applied if we fail to reach the targets , and ironically this scenario could put a stop to any future plans for housing .
[[ 2016/2284 : reduction of 5 pollutants 2 of which are sources of nitrogen oxides and fine particulates matter ]].
We are already surrounded by excessive traffic from liffey valley and the M50.
2024/1991 Urban Nature Plan which includes
City parks
Urban Hedges
Community gardens
Ensuring resident live within 300 meters of high-quality accessible public green garden space
Recreation spaces to improve mental and physical health.
I support the councillors in rejecting the rezoning of Coldcut Road, and hopefully it will be preserved as a sport ground and that more family resource centres be added in Liffey Valley.
Please consider the value of urban biodiversity and the peoples health and well-being. "Well, you roll on roads
Over fresh green grass
For your lorry loads Oh, I know we've come a long way
We're changing day to day
But tell me, where do the children play? "
