The minister for local government and planning has ordered Cork City Council to scrap the zoning on several sites in the new city development plan.
Of the eight changes directed by Minister of State Peter Burke, seven were introduced by way of amendments proposed by city councillors to the draft city development plan against the advice of city planners.
