            Developments
• A more co-ordinated and partnership
  approach
  – Site Resolution Plans (SRPs)
• Tackling public safety issues
• Putting in place a stronger legislative and

Looking Ahead
Solutions for Unfinished Developments


• System of Triage Required

  – Some will be finished and occupied without
    assistance
  – Some require innovative management and
    financing
  – Some demand demolition
Solutions for Unfinished Developments


• The Good
  – Those that will be finished and occupied without
    assistance
  – Proximity to employment / major urban centres
Solutions for Unfinished Developments


• The Bad
  – Those that require innovative management and
    financing
Solutions for Unfinished Developments


• The Ugly

  – Those that demand demolition
  – Poorly designed, built and located…
Resolving Unfinished Housing
            Developments
• The Department will re-state previous
  planning guidance to planning authorities on
  specific policy aspects regarding better
  phasing of development, the provision of
  bonds / securities and other DECLG policies as
  regards sequential and phased development
  to inform the resolution of unfinished housing
Future Planning
• an end to the badly-designed slapped-up so-
  called ‘luxury developments’ surrounded by a
  sea of car parking in a field that was owned by
  someone who knew someone three miles
  down the road.
• An 80% windfall tax on “up-zoned” land which
  forms part of the NAMA legislation,
  dramatically reduces the incentive from land-
  owners to seek the rezoning of their land.
Innovative uses for Empty Housing
• Department of Environment, Community and
  Local Government
• Department of Jobs, Enterprise and
  Innovation
• Department of Education and Skills
• Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport

  – Early adopters on low carbon can harness gains
• Smart growth crucial to sustainability
  – Agriculture, transportation, construction, energy
