COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS
SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

Wednesday, September 21, 2016

MOTION NO. 20

MOTION: Councillor E. Higgins

"Can the Chief Executive  outline the next steps the Council intends to take in order to enforce the planning conditions associated with the activity ongoing at Windmill Hill given that An Bord Pleanala dismissed the case on the basis that SDCC is no longer in possession of the planning file?"

REPORT:

The Planning Authority initiated legal proceedings against Behan's Quarry for unauthorised activity outside the permitted area for quarrying.  The case was dismissed in the District Court on 19th July 2016 as the Planning Authority is no longer in possession of the original site layout plan for the planning application that was lodged in 1969.  There is no further action open to the Planning Authority in this matter. 

An application for substitute consent is currently with An Bord Pleanála.
