Core Reason for the Refused Part
Traffic safety hazards and the unjustified demolition of a historic building within an Architectural Conservation Area.
Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The proposed additional vehicular entrance would create a traffic hazard due to excessive footpath crossover and poor inter-visibility between motorists and pedestrians.
- The project involves the demolition of a historic building in an Architectural Conservation Area without any submitted justification.
- The development materially contravenes Fingal Development Plan objectives DMS157, DMS158, and DMS160 concerning heritage preservation.
