Green Ideas Sought on the Future of Dun Laoghaire Harbour

Dun Laoghaire Harbour Company is looking for ideas on the future direction of Dun Laoghaire Harbour, including renewable energy and other green initiatives. The Harbour Company is preparing a Masterplan to address the changing emphasis of the harbour from a commercial to a recreational harbour.

The Harbour Company and the Project Team drawing up the Harbour Masterplan are interested in hearing from anyone with ideas about the future of the Harbour. All ideas received will be carefully considered and will provide a valuable context for the Masterplan.

Dun Laoghaire Harbour Company is responsible for maintaining the huge physical fabric of the harbour, with its many protected structures. The Harbour Masterplan will protect and enhance the harbour’s natural features and its setting. It will also address potential new uses, such as cruise ship visits and tourism initiatives to enhance economic development in the area and it will examine the potential for renewable energy and other green initiatives in the Harbour. It will also examine the future relationship between the harbour and the Dun Laoghaire town centre.

You can log on to www.dlharbour.ie/masterplan to send your ideas and/or complete the on-line questionnaire. Alternatively, you can send your ideas by post to Masterplan Team, Dun Laoghaire Harbour Company, Harbour Lodge, Crofton Road, Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin or e mail info@dlharbour.ie  before 17th January 2011.
