That the Manager would present a detailed report for discussion on what issues, if any, would need to be addressed should it be the will of the Councillors as part of the review of the current County Development Plan 2004-2010, that the small piece of land adjacent to Gaelscoil Naomh Padraig not be used as a link road from Esker Meadow View to Esker Lane, particularly as the extension to the N4 from Esker Lane has been closed as part of the N4 Road Widening Scheme. How would these issues if any be addressed?

Colin Ryan

That this Committee requests the Manager to prepare a Local Area Plan for Palmerstown and that the Manager would set out the time-frame for the preparation of such a Local Area Plan. In the context of the current Proposed Development at the former Vincent Byrne site, it is premature to consider this Planning Application until a Local Area Plan is prepared. This Committee requests the Manager to seek a report from the National Roads Authority on its views of this proposed development, in the context of any future up-grading of the junction at the Kennelsfort Road/N4, including a east-west/west-east underpass similar to that at the Newcastle Road/N4 junction in Lucan. The local community in Palmerstown is united and shocked at the prospect of such a massive over development on this site, which would have such devastating consequences for the entire Palmerstown Community, including the residents of Palmerstown Village. Would the Manager also present a detailed report on the longer-term traffic implications for Palmerstown, including Palmerstown Village at the Kennelsfort Road/N4 junction?

That this Committee requests management to re-examine the decision to allow a change of use application from retail to restaurant at Rath Gael, Planning Ref-SD07A/0132.
