MOTION NO. 6

MOTION: Councillor L. Dunne

This Area Committee calls on the Manager to take on board concerns regarding the 16 proposed apartments in Rossfield given the transient nature of tenants in the nearby apartments and instead develop houses on the proposed site that will allow for longtime tenancy.

REPORT:

The advertisement under Section 179 (A) Part 8 Derogation was published in December 2023. Detailed design on the development of 16 new homes at Rossfield Avenue is now complete. The council will now proceed to tender with a projected start date on site in Q2 2024. The published advertisement consisted of 16 homes across two blocks. Proposed blocks are located on both sides of the existing entrance roadway into Brookfield Enterprise Centre and will be three storeys in height stepping down to two storeys adjoining existing houses on Brookfield Avenue / Rossfield Avenue.  These homes will consist of a mix of 1, 2 and 3-bed own-door units as follows: 

• 6 x 1 bed homes
• 6 x 2 bed homes
• 4 x 3 bed homes

The homes will be allocated in accordance with South Dublin County Council Allocations Scheme.
