QUESTION NO. 2

QUESTION: Councillor W. Carey

To ask the Chief Executive if this committee can receive a report on proposal for housing and school on Rathcoole site.

REPLY:

Planning application (SD23A/0336) for a school off Coolamber Drive Rathcoole was granted permission by SDCC in December 2024. This decision was subject to a third-party appeal. An Board Pleanala (ABP-321696-25) upheld the decision of SDCC to grant permission in May 2025. The related reports are publicly available on the planning portal. 

The enquiry in relation to any potential housing proposals to adjoining lands is best addressed to the housing section, as any related proposals would likely be in the form of a Part 8 applications proposed by that Section, as subject lands are owned by SDCC.
