Cork GAA plan for 319-unit housing scheme faces local opposition (The Irish Times)

Profits earned from development to go towards Páirc Uí Chaoimh stadium debt which stands at €29.74m.

Marc Sheehan, chairman of the Cork county board, said, when lodging the plans, that “the shortage of housing in Cork and across the country is well documented and this development could provide homes for hundreds of families in a great location”. in an area of Cork city that has not benefited from the provision of a significantly scaled private housing development in many years”. In its objection, the Cork Environmental Forum has told the appeals board that the development was not appropriate as it was “being built at the most distant and isolated part of the community on a site furthest from public transport links and most difficult to access by walking and cycling”.

Munster at Páirc Uí Chaoimh: A dry run for future fixtures from other ... (Irish Examiner)

If this goes well and, say Munster were to reach a Champions Cup semi-final next year with a home fixture, the match would be expected to take place at the ...

Last summer, the board of Páirc Uí Chaoimh stadium and Cork GAA submitted a planning application with Cork City Council seeking permission for modifications to the stadium. Bigger plans are in place and the rugby fixture now is just another step in that process. Just over a week ago, An Bord Pleanála (ABP) overturned a decision by Cork City Council in deciding to grant conditional planning permission for changes to Páirc Uí Chaoimh. There was never going to be any opposition to the request given the amount of debt still owed on Páirc Uí Chaoimh. That game attracted close to 43,000 people but the fixture was shrouded in controversy before it took place. History will be made on November 10th when Munster take on a South Africa XV in Páirc Uí Chaoimh.
