MEETING OF RATHFARNHAM/TEMPLEOGUE/FIRHOUSE/BOHERNABREENA AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, June 09, 2020

MOTION NO. 2

MOTION: Councillor Alan Edge

In light of the present application to build 496 residential units in blocks of up to 7 storeys high at the Augustinian site on Taylor's Lane, that this Area Committee write to the Department of Housing, Planning and Local Government calling on the incoming government to revoke S.I. 271/2017 and bring to an end the wholly undemocratic system of Strategic Housing Developments.

REPORT:

This is something that is open to the Area Committee at any stage and goes beyond a specific SHD3 application at the Augustinian site on Taylor’s Lane. As part of the SHD process for a specific site, a Planning report on the SHD planning application, making a full assessment and recommendation, will be submitted to An Bord Pleanala by SDCC Planning Department prior to a decision being made by An Bord Pleanala.
