MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE (2)

QUESTION NO. 11

QUESTION: Councillor K. Warren

To ask the Manager to outline what action can be taken by the Planning Enforcement Section of South Dublin County Council to ensure that Phase 2 of Silken Park, Brown’s Barn, Co. Dublin can now be completed given the fact that no work has taken place on the site in question since September of last year, and if he will immediately contact the developer in question, to determine what its plans are for the site, and given the fact that a development has started, is there not an obligation on the part of the developer to complete this phase as soon as possible, and if he will make a statement on the matter.

REPLY:

Planning Permission was granted on 8th March 2006 (SD05A/0433 refers) on 8th March 2006. As the Developer has 5 years from the date of the Grant of Permission to complete the development in full, there is no enforcement action required at this location.  However, the Council will write to the Developer to ascertain his intentions in relation to Phase 2 of Silken Park.
