Re:      Proposed disposal of site at Prospect Cottages, Lot 1, Stocking Lane

            Rathfarnham, Dublin 14.

            South Dublin County Council to Brian & Linda Stephens

The Council advertised the above site for sale in the Irish Independent on 4th November 2009 and continuously on Daft.ie from that date.  The closing date for receipt of offers was 16th December 2009.

The Council received six valid offers for Prospect Cottages, Lot 1.  The Chief Valuer has recommended acceptance of the highest individual offer for Lot 1 of €300,000.00 from Brian & Linda Stephens (which exceeded all combined offers) as being fair and reasonable subject to contract and completion of the legal formalities with the following conditions:-

  1. Payment in the sum of €300,000.00
  2. A payment of 10% of the offer price on submission of the offer.
  3. Successful tenderer will be notified in writing following approval of the elected Members.
  4. Contract must be signed and final payment made within 2 months of the date of approval of elected Members of the Council.
  5. Each party shall be liable for their own legal fees.

I recommend in accordance with Section 211 of the Planning & Development Act, 2000, Section 88 of the Housing Act, 1966 and subject to the provisions of Section 183 of the Local Government Act, 2001 that the Council dispose of the site at Prospect Cottages, Lot 1, Stocking Lane, Rathfarnham, Dublin 14 as shown delineated in red on Drawings No. LA/36/09 dated October 2009 comprising 1370 square metres or thereabouts to Brian & Linda Stephens, 22A St Patrick’s Cottages, Rathfarnham, Dublin 14. subject to the conditions outlined above.

The land being disposed of is part of lands acquired from Julia Fox in 2002 for Housing purposes.
