MEETING OF CLONDALKIN AREA COMMITTEE
Wednesday, June 17, 2015
MOTION NO.11
MOTION: Councillor F. Timmons
“That this area Committee calls on the 11 houses to be built on St Mark’s Green agreed by the last council (despite most councillors agreeing it was not the best site) now call for these houses to be included in the proposed development on St Mark’s Avenue.”
REPORT:
Under the Part 8 (public consultation planning process) a report on the proposed development of 11 social housing units was presented to and approved by the members of South Dublin County Council on the 9th of September 2013.
In line with the prescribed procedure associated with all capital works, a formal submission was submitted to the Department of Environment Community and Local Government (DECLG) for approval. The Department has given Stage 1 approval on the scheme for the construction of 11 units. We have submitted a cost plan to the DECLG for the construction of these units, once this is approved the Council will proceed to the tender stage of the process with construction planned to commence in early 2016.
Preliminary plans for a proposed infill scheme for 39 units at St Marks Avenue were discussed at the Area Committee meeting in January 2015 and a report was presented to the Council meeting in March 2015. The Council plans to proceed with the public consultation process in the third quarter of this year. Following this public consultation process a Part 8 report on the proposed development will presented to the members for approval.
