The Waterford City and County Development Plan 2022 – 2028 was made at a special plenary meeting of Waterford City and County Council on the 7^th of June 2022 and will come into effect on the 19^th of July 2022.

In order to make the main policy text and associated development management information available prior to the plan becoming live, set out below is an interim version of the main policy document (Volume 1) and development management standards (Volume 2) along with the main land use zoning provisions, flood mapping and specific development objectives relating to areas across the city and county:

• Volume 1 of the interim Waterford City and County Development Plan 2022 – 2028
• Volume 2 of the interim Waterford City and County Development Plan 2022 – 2028
• Land use zoning, flood mapping and specific development objective mapping 

The documents and information presented here represents an amalgamation of the various amendments to the draft plan as agreed by the Council. All environmental reports, detailed map data and appendices associated with the draft plan are currently available on the consult.waterfordcouncil.ie portal and these will be finalised and made available on the date of the plan coming into effect.

We will be working to prepare a final version of all documents which will be published on our website, and which will also be available in hard copy on the 19^th of July. An Irish translation of the main policy document will also be available in due course.
