That makes sense. I am a fan of the concept and the current development of cities' edge. Was consideration given to also applying a UDZ concept to geographically smaller sites that are still strategically important? Again, this is more an issue for Dublin city than it is for us in the county. Senator Fitzpatrick might have been on the council a couple of years ago when there was a proposition to rezone a number of brownfield or commercial sites in Dublin city. There was disagreement between the officials in the housing section and the planning section on the appropriate way to do it. I have always liked the idea of a nimble urban development zone concept that could also be applied to those kinds of sites. The sites might be geographically small but could yield a high density. There is value in having those big master plans but all those smaller sites that might benefit from that kind of three-dimensional master planning and fast tracking. That could be an interesting instrument. Was consideration given to that? It would not feature on a State-wide map of strategically important zones.
