REPORT:

The South Dublin County Council Development Plan 2022 – 2028 at this stage will set out a Strategic Spatial framework for the development of the County. This objective is overly specific for this stage of the process.

Recommendation:   It is recommended that this motion is adopted with amendment. This type of policy provision can be considered as part of the draft plan preparation on foot of the CE Strategic Recommendation (See Part 3) page 25 as follows; ‘Ensure that the Housing Strategy recognises the diverse needs of all of South Dublin’s citizens meeting, insofar as is feasible, their diverse accommodation needs.
