An Bord Pleanála upholds dlr planning refusal

In 2013 Orwell Homes Development Limited applied to Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council to  demolish 157 Orwell Road and construct four three-storey five-bedroom houses.

In March of this year dlr refused planning permission and the developer appealed to An Bord Pleanála. 

Last week the Board announced that it had rejected the appeal.

It is a welcome decision by An Bord Pleanála as the proposed development would have been visually obtrusive and represent an overdevelopment of the site, contravening the zoning objective in the dlr development plan  2010  - 2016.

Orwell Homes Development Limited was set up on Tuesday, October 1, 2013 in Dublin 6. The company's current directors Fintan Wallis and Roderic O'Beirne have been the directors of 22 other Irish companies between them; 12 of which are now closed.

A good day for planning laws in Ireland.
