Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The applicant failed to demonstrate ownership or provide the necessary legal consent for the proposed widening of the existing dished footpath.
- The proposed works to the footpath contravene Section 12.1.1 of the Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Development Plan 2022-2028 and Article 22 of the Planning and Development Regulations 2001.
- Carrying out works on land without appropriate legal interest or consent is contrary to the principles of proper planning, sustainable development, and legal compliance.
