CORKAGH PARK PAVILION PART 8
REPLY:
The Part 8 proposal for a proposed sports changing rooms pavilion at Corkagh Park (Outer Ring Road R136), Clondalkin consists of the following:
- 6 No. team changing rooms
- Accessible facilities including WC and referee’s changing room.
- 2 No. Storage facilities for team equipment and Plant room.
- All associated works and services
- Installation of CCTV for security
The proposal has undergone Appropriate Assessment Screening under the Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC) and screening for Environmental Impact Assessment and a Flood Risk Assessment has been carried out. The Planning Authority has made a preliminary examination of the nature, size, and location of the proposed development. The authority has concluded that there is no real likelihood of significant effects on the environment arising from the proposed development and that an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is not required.
The plans and particulars of the proposed development were on display at County Hall, Tallaght, Dublin 24 and Clondalkin Civic Offices, Dublin 22, during normal working hours and via the Council’s Public Consultation Portal website on http://www.sdcc.ie/, during the period from 27th February 2020 to 15th June 2020.
The public consultation period was extended to 5 pm on the 15th June 2020 to allow for the Covid-19 Lockdown period as per order S251A.
Submissions or observations with respect to the proposed development dealing with the proper planning and sustainable development of the area in which the proposed development will be situated could be made in writing up to 5 pm on the 15th June 2020 and were submitted either on line or by post.
By the closing date 5 No. submissions were received. These have been summarised and responded to in the Chief Executive's Report.
Following consideration of the submissions the Chief Executive is of the view that the issues raised by way of the submissions can be satisfactorily addressed by the proposals made for subsequent project stages and as outlined in the Chief Executive's Report.
It is recommended that, as the proposal is in conformity with proper planning and sustainable development and is supported by the Council’s Sports Pitch Strategy, the Council proceed with the Part 8 proposal to construct a changing rooms pavilion at Corkagh Park, Clondalkin.
