Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
General Scheme of the Land Value Sharing and Urban Development Zones Bill 2022: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms AnnMarie Farrelly:
In regard to any plan, that viability assessment is essential. There is little point in having a plan that cannot be implemented. That economic piece needs to be kept through the plan-making process. However, it is ultimately about prioritising plans, choosing the sites that require less intervention and less cost to get activated, and getting those completed first. It is very much about good plan-making and understanding what the ultimate development of a site should be. There is no easy solution to the viability issue.
