QUESTION NO. 3

QUESTION: Councillor S. Crowe

"To ask the Manager will he give report outlining the fines imposed on the owners of the derelict site located beside the Traders Pub, Limekiln, for non compliance and will he make a statement on the matter regarding what measures he has taken to recover these demands and bring about improvements to the site?"

REPLY:

The Site at St James Road, Walkinstown (formerly Greenhills Shopping Arcade), Dublin 12, was entered onto the Derelict Sites Register on 19th December, 2009.  A Section 22 Notice of Determination of Market Value was then issued to the registered owners.  The registered owner was informed of their right of appeal of the valuation to the Valuation Tribunal, however, as no appeal was received by the Valuation Tribunal, a Section 23 Notice of Levy Demand was issued on 3rd March, 2009, demanding an annual levy of  €60,000.  This levy was not paid within the two months allowed, therefore, legal proceedings have now been initiated to recover this outstanding debt.
