MEETING OF RATHFARNHAM/TEMPLEOGUE-TERENURE AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, October 11, 2016

QUESTION NO. 2

QUESTION: Councillor D. O'Donovan

"To ask the Chief Executive what permeability was put in place for the recently constructed Airpark Estate in Rathfarnham? Residents were led to believe there would be a gate which would enable them to walk to local shops and schools, but the builder hasn't provided same.  Can you please confirm what the planning permission allowed with regard to permeability?"

REPLY:

"Works involving the provision of a gate in this wall were commenced in 2011 but a protest by the residents of Woodfield in the vicinity of the gate led to the contractor abandoning the works and returning the wall to its original condition. The contractor no longer trades."
