The Waterford City and County Development 2022 – 2028 sets out the strategy for the proper planning and sustainable development of the City and County over the plan period from 2022 to 2028.
The Plenary Council adopted the document at the meeting held on Thursday 7th June 2022 and it came into effect on Tuesday 19th July 2022.
The Plan also contains development management standards, policies and objectives and references statutory guidelines which will inform decision making over the period of the Plan. The approach is centred on the core principle of sustainability and compact growth with a focus on regeneration and economic development, supported by vibrant, liveable, climate resilient communities. This Plan is consistent with both the ‘National Planning Framework’ (2018) (NPF) and the ‘Regional Spatial and Economic Strategy for the Southern Region’ (2020) (RSES).
Copies of Volume 1, Volume 2 and a Book of Land Use Zoning Maps are available for purchase from Planning@waterfordcouncil.ie and the customer care desks in Waterford City and Dungarvan.
