Refused

Core Refusal Reason

Decision Maker's Conclusion

  • The development site forms part of an open space area established under a previously executed planning permission (Reg. No. 97/3935) for a residential estate.
  • The proposal materially contravenes Objective 6.18 and Section ZO 1.7 of the City Development Plan 2022-2028, which maintains a presumption against development on green areas or public amenity spaces.
  • The loss of this open space would seriously injure the residential amenities of the area and is contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the locality.
