Twenty submissions to a new development in a wealthy, established area is fuck all. Especially when some of those are the useless template copies. Also, like all submissions, if they don’t identify a material breach of a development plan or national guideline, they are just a complete waste of the submission fee. Planners cannot take your feelings or how long you’ve lived in an area into account when making a decision.
Always remember when reading bait like this that developers have their own teams of planners and legal professionals who, unless the developer is being indecently greedy with overdeveloping their site, are more than capable of carrying the application. Frankly, the bigger applicants are usually better resourced than the Local Authority making the decision.
If they clutch their pearls any harder they’ll powderize
Oh my gosh Fintan
‘South Dublin residents’ a deliberately inflated term , what if we called them ‘dirt humans’, people who challenged building on any bit of dirt. Let’s put these people where they belong.
*South Dublin Dirt Humans concerned over ‘ghettoised population’ from ‘build to rent’ scheme* reads much better!
Nice area to live. Great parks near by. A spot of fishing on the dodder. A few pints in the dropping well and lusa into the city. Nice small development too.
If permission gets refused the developer should re apply for 100 units and skip local planning and go straight to ABP
