Social Housing Bullet point 1 Line 1 amend as follows:
“To apply a maximum 10% social housing requirement”
This council agrees that the proportion between private and public housing in the SDZ area would be in the ratio 70:30. The development should be mixed with social housing spread throughout the development in order to avoid the mistakes in the past.
Page 21, under Social Housing insert a new paragraph before paragraph one: “The Provision of social and affordable housing should be fully integrated into the overall planning scheme to provide for mixed income and mixed tenure communities.”
Louise Dunne, Cathal King, Danny O’Brien, Mark Ward
Page 21, under Social Housing insert a new paragraph before paragraph one: “To facilitate the best possible integration of social and affordable housing into the overall planning scheme the Council will actively explore land swaps with other land owners.

Louise Dunne, Cathal King, Danny O’Brien, Mark Ward
The PRTB have confirmed in writing in 2017 that the average tenancy in a private rental property is 2 years and one month or 25 months. That tallies with Research commissioned by the PRTB in 2014 which shows that 73% of those renting privately owned properties intend leaving the sector within 2 years. Analysis of Census 2016 show that there are less than 1,000 children (u18) in the 2331 housing units built in Tallaght Town Centre Town Centre since 1990 where 58% of the units are in the private/rental sector. Contrast that with Adamstown where there are 1101 children (u18) in the 883 housing units built there since 2000 where 28% of the units are in the private/rental sector. Therefore it is imperative for the building of a sustainable and active community that all steps be taken consider when planning to skew the housing provision towards longer term tenure options such as Social & Affordable and this objective to be specifically stated in the plan.
Page 21, under Social Housing, delete the entire final paragraph starting “The South Dublin County Council Traveller Accommodation Programme…” and replace with the following new paragraph: “The Clonburris SDZ provides an important opportunity to meet the acute housing needs of the existing and future Traveller Community. In consultation with the Local Traveller Accommodation Consultative Committee (LTACC) the Council will bring forward proposals to amend The South Dublin County Council Traveller Accommodation Programme 2014-2018 (2014) to ensure the adequate inclusion of Traveller specific accommodation, including where appropriate sites comprising grouped housing and/or residential caravan bays, within the provision of new social housing, within the SDZ planning scheme. The existing Traveller Accommodation sites at Kishoge Park and Lynch’s park shall be integrated into the future development of the lands following consultation with the LTACC”

The provision of live-work units and accommodation of small home based economic activities should also be considered (see Section 2.6 – Economic Development)" to read:
"Individual dwelling units should also be capable of adaptation to meet the changing needs of residents during the course of their lifetime based on the guidance set out under Quality Housing for Sustainable Communities (2007). The need for later extensions or attic conversions should therefore be considered, as well as the potential for one residential unit to be scaled down by up to two rooms and one unit to upsize by a similar amount through the purchase of room space through suitable adjoining party walls designed to make such a purpose possible. The provision of live-work units and accommodation of small home based economic activities should also be considered (see Section 2.6 – Economic Development).

Clonburris and Kishoge will each focus around an urban centre established at the two points of highest accessibilitywithin the SDZ lands i.e. Clondalkin-Fonthill and Kishoge railway stations. Local communities within Clonburris and Kishoge will also be served by
To zone the area formerly known as Adamstown Extension as amenity and move the housing target requirement of 442 to Kishoge Urban Centre and adjoining areas, the figures to be specified in amended Table 2.1.5. In this context Amend Fig 2.1.2 Function Concept Map and Fig 2.1.3 Land Use Area Map and all other related references to represent this land as amenity.
Cllrs G. O'Connell, L. O'Toole and F. Timmons
To delete the following development areas and all references to same in the plan, simultaneously changing the zoning to amenity:
Canal Extension; and

Cllrs G. O'Connell, L. O'Toole and F. Timmons
That in order to compensate for the loss of housing units relating to motions designating Adamstown Extension and the KNW-S1, KNE-S1 and CSE-S2 lands as amenity/open space:
1) The Kishogue Urban Centre and retail core shall be extended in overall area and density, with increases in permitted retail and employment space;
2) Density increases will be provided for in parts of Clonburris Urban Centre and other areas in the plan closer to the railway stations;

Section 2.1.5. Given that the available land around and adjacent to both Kishogue and Clonburrris Railway Stations should have the highest density (c/f SDZ0188, David Clements National Transport Authority) this will allow for a higher (than 90 hectares) of open space and for a pro rata increase in the (proposed 7.300 sq.m) of community floorspace.

That, considering the high percentage of land owned by SDCC within the SDZ lands and the current housing crisis, this SDZ provides an opportunity to provide high quality social housing on a large scale. In addition, the significant investment by the state for infrastructure should ensure the provision of affordable housing for sale. Therefor the following sentence should be inserted into Section 1.3 Overarching Principles of the Planning Scheme:
“The SDZ should make provisions for a substantial number of social housing units. The minimum total units provided for social housing should amount to 40% of the total units. At minimum, another 30% should be guaranteed affordable.”

The SDZ lands are positioned to benefit from a wide range of existing and planned transport opportunities offered by the Kildare/Cork Railway Line,the Grand Canal and an existing network of national, regional and local roads that are served by existing bus lanes and planned Core Bus Corridors (CBCs), as well as existing local bus routes. However given that many road routes are nearing full congestion at peak hours, the SDZ cannot be allowed to add to this congestion.

Economic Development 2.6
Overall the size allocated to E&E has been reduced in the proposed Clonburris SDZ plan and this does not allow for increase in local employment and doesn’t allow for a broader mix of enterprise for future residents within the Cloburris SDZ and existing residents in surrounding areas. Introducing local employment with greater opportunities for local employment within the Clonburris SDZ plan would result in alleviating traffic congestion which residents in surrounding areas are currently experiencing.
Census figures from 2016 states the following:
“In 2016 there were 11034 commuters who lived in the Electoral Division of LUCAN – ESKER but worked elsewhere. There were 2482 commuters who travelled into this electoral division to work. This resulted in a net flow of -8552.”
This tells us the vast majority of people in the Lucan are travelling one way to go to work outside the Lucan area resulting in the traffic gridlock. If more residents can get work locally it will reduce traffic journeys.
Local employment is vital to allow the possibility of part time work for those with young families (particularly women) who need to stay in close proximity to their children’s school and who are only available to work part time. It is not always viable for part time workers to commute outside the area.
The 442 units located in Adamstown Extension (see Table 2.1.5) to be relocated within the SDZ plan Kishoge Urban Centre (KUC) 734 + 442 = 1176, bringing it in line with the proposed number in Clonburris Urban Centre (CUC) (1265.).
Allowing the proposed 442 units on the Adamstown Extension would only lead to the following outcomes:
Increase car usage as the proposed 442 units are disconnected from the wider Clonburris Plan. Placing new and ADDITIONAL exits/entrances on the Newcastle Road R120 would result increasing the gridlock that is currently present on this road. The lack of schools, shops etc within close proximity to the proposed 442 units will lead to additional cars accessing the Newcastle Road R136 adding further to the traffic congestion which is currently being experienced.

[Rationale: Irrespective of whether motions have been passed to designate all of this area as amenity or open space, the current school location is too close to the existing Kishoge Community College and does not allow for future population growth in Kishoge Central and adjoining areas whether the local density is increased or not. A more central location makes sense and if the land in this area has been zoned amenity then it creates part of a hub of active recreation in between schools and existing/future housing development to the north of the site.}

Miscellaneous
Motions
That this Council, noting:
-
- the Adamstown SDZ remains at an early stage of development;
-
- the lack of sustainable phasing requirements in the draft SDZ planning scheme for necessary transport infrastructure and public transport improvements;
-
- the failure of the draft SDZ planning scheme to acknowledge or address the current scale of traffic congestion and lack of public transport carrying capacity in the Lucan and Clondalkin;
Considers that the proposal set-out in the draft SDZ planning scheme would lead to unsustainable over-development and therefore RESOLVES NOT TO ADOPT THE PLANNING SCHEME.
That we will only support the adoption of the Clonburris SDZ scheme if it provides for sustainable planning and adequate transport infrastructure
