HEADED ITEM NO. 5

Proposed Development at Clutterland and Milltown Business Park Adjacent to Grange Castle Business Park

Clutterland

The Part 8 (Planning & Development Act 2000 and the Planning and Development Regulations 2001 - 2007) process for the provision of an access road and services to 30 Acres of Council owned lands at Clutterland has been completed.  The Council has advertised for Expressions of Interest in respect of the construction of this project and the closing date for receipt of Expressions of Interest was 15th May 2008.

Dublin Bus were granted planning permission, subject to conditions, for the construction of a Bus Depot on these lands on 14th March 2008 but this decision has now been appealed to An Bord Pleanála.

Milltown Business & Technological Park

The Council owns some 80 acres of land at Milltown, south of the Nangor Road which are zoned Objective E, to provide for Enterprise, Employment and related uses in South Dublin County Council's Development Plan 2004 - 2010.  It is now proposed to commence the process of constructing the necessary infrastructure to service these lands so that they can be developed in accordance with the zoning objective.  The initial development will be the provision of a main access road and services which will then allow these lands to be brought to the market.
