SD22A/0386
The demolition of existing garage and the construction of 1 dormer style, 3 bedroom detached dwelling with new vehicular access from Limekiln Road including the diversion of the existing storm water pipe and all associated ancillary site works. Proposed works similar to previously approved planning permission ref SD07A/0710.
Refused
Core Refusal Reason
Recommendation to grant permission, overturning the local authority's refusal, on the basis that the infill development is consistent with residential zoning and the County Development Plan, with riparian corridor impacts deemed minor and temporary.
Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The proposed infill dwelling is consistent with the 'Residential' zoning and integrates visually with the existing streetscape and the character of the area.
- The diversion of the surface water pipe and works within the riparian corridor are minor in nature and can be managed through direct supervision by the Water Services Department to ensure no adverse impact on the River Poddle.
- The proposal does not pose a significant flood risk and will have a negligible impact on the Dublin Bay SAC, allowing for the screening out of both Environmental Impact Assessment and Appropriate Assessment.
