Core Refusal Reason
Demolition of a dwelling without a concurrent redevelopment proposal, resulting in a vacant site that harms residential and visual amenities.
Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The absence of a redevelopment plan would lead to a vacant residentially zoned site for an undetermined period, injuring the visual and residential amenities of the area.
- The proposal is contrary to the Z1 zoning objective and the vision for residential development set out in Section 14.7.1 of the Dublin City Development Plan 2022-2028.
- The development would depreciate the value of surrounding properties and would not be in the interest of proper planning and sustainable development.

Decision Document Summary
The proposal involved the demolition of a derelict single-story dwelling at 91 Raheny Road, Raheny, Dublin 5. The local authority refused permission primarily because the application lacked a replacement development proposal, which would result in a vacant lot. This was deemed harmful to the residential and visual amenities of the neighborhood, inconsistent with the Z1 zoning objective to protect residential areas, and contrary to the Dublin City Development Plan 2022-2028....SOURCE PDFOpen Original
