MOTION NO.

MOTION: Councillor G. O'Connell

Section 2.4. In order to have an orderly and timely realisation of the aim “To develop vibrant mixed use centres around the Clonhurris and Kishogue railway stations as part of a hierarchy of urban centres to serve Clonburris” (P 78 ibid) and associated nubs, South Dublin County Council shall be the lead partner to ensure that the facilities are delivered on schedule and where necessary, prioritising the needs of the residents, South Dublin County Council shall secure bridging finance in anticipation of contributions from Developers/Government Funding.

Councillors Guss O’Connell, Liona O’Toole, Paul Gogarty and Francis Timmons

REPORT:

The Chief Executive notes the intention of the motion. 

It is noted that Section 4.10 Funding and Implementation states that

‘The development of the SDZ lands is subject to the SDCC Section 48 Development Contribution Scheme 2016-2022 and the Kildare Route Project Section 49 Contribution Scheme and any applicable superseding schemes.

All measures and funding streams available for the release of funding to provide for the delivery of infrastructure and community facilities in Clonburris will be pursued in conjunction with landowners/ developers.’ 

It is considered that the text in Section 4.10 covers the intention of the motion.

It is considered that additional text to Section 2.4 is unnecessary as the intent of the motion is already covered in the Draft Planning Scheme and the motion should therefore not be adopted.

Recommendation

It is recommended that the motion is not adopted.
