LD 1578      Proposed disposal of plot of land to Gas Networks Ireland (GNI) to facilitate a replacement District Regulation Installation (DRI) unit at Glenview Lawns, Tallaght, Dublin 24

 

 

GNI have made an application to acquire a plot of land to facilitate a replacement DRI unit at Glenview Lawns, Tallaght, Dublin 24.  The previous installation is to be decommissioned and the area reinstated to match its surroundings.  The subject plot for the replacement installation is outlined in red on attached Drawing No. 46232306-ACQ-01 – Folio DN181667F refers.

I recommend that the Council disposes of its freehold interest in the plot of land outlined in red on Drawing No. 46232306-ACQ-01 in accordance with Section 211 & 212 of the Planning and Development Act, 2000 and subject to the provisions of Section 183 of the Local Government Act, 2001 subject to the following terms and conditions:-

1. That the Council disposes of its interest in the plot of land outlined in red on Drawing No. 46232306-ACQ-01, comprising 8.6 square metres or thereabouts, for the consideration of €500 (five hundred euro).

2. That GNI shall pay Council legal fees reasonably and necessarily incurred up to a maximum of €1,200 plus VAT.

3. That in the event of any name change to Applicant prior to formal completion of the legal transfer, the Applicant must provide documentary evidence to the Council proving that the new named party is one and the same as the named Applicant heretofore to enable the transfer to complete.

4. That each party shall use their reasonable endeavours to complete the transaction within a reasonable timeframe following adoption of the disposal resolution.

5. That the Purchaser shall prepare the Deed of Transfer.

6. That no contract enforceable at law is created or intended to be created until such time as contracts have been exchanged.

7. That the disposal is subject to the necessary approvals and consents being obtained.

The lands being disposed of form part of the lands acquired from Dublin City Council (formerly Dublin Corporation) in 1997 under the Scheme of Transfer of Lands pursuant to the Local Government (Dublin) Act, 1993.
