REPORT ON CLONBURRIS SDZ PUBLIC CONSULTATION
REPLY:
On 15th December 2015, the Government ordered the designation of approximately 280 hectares of land at Clonburris, as a site for the establishment of a Strategic Development Zone (SDZ). Order 2015 (S.I. No. 604 of 2015) established and extended the designated area for Balgaddy-Clonburris SDZ.
As the specified Development Agency, South Dublin County Council is preparing a Draft Planning Scheme for lands at Clonburris in accordance with Part IX of the Planning and Development Acts 2000 – 2010 (as amended) and the Planning and Development (Strategic Environmental Assessment) Regulations 2004-2011.
As part of the preparation of the Draft Planning Scheme the Council undertook non-statutory pre-draft public consultation from 14 March to 11 April 2016. A total of 140 submissions were received. The Chief Executive’s Report summarises the issues raised during the public consultation. The Chief Executive’s Report will play a significant role in guiding the preparation of the Draft Planning Scheme for Clonburris SDZ.
The next steps in the process will encompass the detailed and comprehensive preparation of the Draft Planning Scheme for Clonburris SDZ. As part of the preparation of the Draft Planning Scheme a workshop for Councillors will be held in the Council Chamber of South Dublin County Council on Wednesday 29 June from 3 to 5 pm.
