MOTION NO. 14
MOTION: Councillor K. Egan
"That this Area Committee asks the Chief Executive to give a detailed reply on Application SD18A/0291 by Oranmore Investments at San Jose, New Rd, Clondalkin was refused permission and yet the developer ignored the decision and has completed the development as he proposed and advertised it for non-residential use. What enforcement decision has SDCC decided on and what it to date. Also, what are the stages and timelines to carry out the enforcement."
REPORT:
Under Register Reference SD15A/0021, planning permission was granted for two semi-detached four bedroom houses consisting of ground, first and attic floor levels (each house 166sq.m). Following on from this a subsequent application was made under Register Reference SD18A/0291, to construct 2 three-storey, 3-bedroom dwellings and one 3-bedroom dormer bungalow to side of existing detached two storey dwelling and garden site, but was refused.
After a number of complaints were received a planning enforcement file was opened on 9th April 2021 for non-compliance with Condition 1 of SD15A/0021. Subsequently, warning letters issued dated 9th April 2021 & 13th May 2021 to the owner/occupier under Section 152 of the Planning & Development Act 2000 (as amended). As a person served with this letter, the owner / occupier may make submissions or observations in writing to the Planning Authority regarding the above (which, if true, would constitute an offence under the Planning & Development Act 2000 (as amended)
I can confirm that a submission has been received from the Architect and has been referred to the Planning Inspector, following which a recommendation will be made. If it is determined that there is noncompliance with the planning permission, enforcement proceedings may be initiated accordingly.
