"Taking In Charge of a Housing Estate under Section 180 of the Planning & Development Act 2000 - Wilkins View, Limekiln Lane, Dublin 12
Note: Under a previous Taking in Charge process completed on Tuesday 7th May 2019, the Roads, Footpaths, Green Open Spaces and Public Lighting in the Wilkin’s View Estate were previously Taken in Charge by South Dublin County Council.
At that time insufficient information was submitted on the condition and specification of the watermains, storm drainage and foul sewerage. Therefore, these items were not Taken in Charge at that time.
The following report considers the Taking in Charge of the following utilities in the Wilkin’s View Housing Estate:
- The Watermain network.
- The Storm Drainage network.
- The Foul Drainage network.
Statutory Notice under Section 180 of the Planning and Development Act 2000 has been given of the Council’s intention to consider the Taking in Charge of the above Items in the Wilkin’s View Housing Estate.
The Public Consultation was advertised in the press and was available for Public viewing on an online Portal. This Public Consultation period ran from the 24 January 2022 until 7 March 2022.

- The Watermain is fully compliant with the relevant specifications and constructed to a high Standard.
- The Storm Drainage is fully compliant with the relevant specifications and constructed to a high standard.
- The Foul Drainage is fully compliant with the relevant specifications and constructed to a high standard.
