COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS
SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF SDZ, LAPS AND PLANNING PROJECTS

MOTION NO. 8

MOTION: Councillor C. O'Connor , Councillor M. Duff

This Council calls on the Manager to clarify how the heights and densities will operate in the Village area with specific regard to the ACA area and request that the scale takes into account the historic context and the two story landscape, in the Tallaght Town Centre Local Area Plan.

REPORT:

Tallaght Village is zoned 'VC  for Village Centre' uses. The zoning matrix provides for residential development within this zoning category. Notwithstanding this, the general provisions of the LAP in terms of height and density in the plan provide clear objectives for the village neighbourhood, which require any proposed development to respect the existing scale and context of the Village and ACA and to demonstrate same as part of any planning proposals.

RECOMMENDATION:

No further amendment required as clarification on the matter has been provided.
