MEETING OF CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE

MOTION NO. 11

MOTION: Councillor B. Bonner

"Could we have an update on the situation with regard to the planning application for housing at St John's Road.   SD16A/0317.  

During the interim period, residents would like boulders or some other type of barrier to be erected at the entrance to the old commons lane at the St John's Road end in order to deter those who have been dumping rubbish on an industrial scale in this laneway.  

This committee requests that the planning process for this development could be completed without delay.  The development had the universal backing of the community and of public representatives.  There is a critical shortage of housing for sale in the village area.  It is difficult to explain, in this time of housing shortage, why this development is taking so long.  

Could this delay be explained in layman's language please".

REPORT:

Regarding SD16A/0317, this is a current application. Additional information was requested from the applicant on the 28th October 2016. This was received from the applicant on the 12th January 2017. A decision is due by 9th February 2017.
