What’s proposed
I, Karen Downes, seek planning permission, as an amended application, to the previously approved first floor extension application Reg. Ref. 3289/20 for revised first floor extension to the rear and first floor refurbishment of a two storey semi-detached house at 179 Griffith Avenue, Drumcondra, Dublin 9. The proposed development will consist of the construction of a first floor pitched roof extension sitting on top of the existing rear ground floor extension. The proposed first floor extension measures 28 m2 (total gross house area including existing house is 189 m2). The proposed extension is similar in height, width and form to the previously approved proposal Reg. Ref. 3289/20 with an additional 5 m2 in area. The proposed development will also consist of general remedial works to the first floor layout including removal of internal walls and breaking through external rear wall at first floor to access new first floor extension, new family bathroom, velux window to rear roof pitch of main house and associated site works

Zoning at the site
Zone Z9 - DEV PLAN 2022-2028
Z9: Amenity/Open Space Lands/Green Network: To preserve, provide and improve recreational amenity, open space and ecosystem services.
Land zoned to stay open — parks, playing fields, amenity corridors. Built development is very hard to justify, which also means the view is protected.
Z1: Sustainable Residential Neighbourhoods: To protect, provide and improve residential amenities.
An established residential area. The objective is to protect existing residential amenity as well as to provide housing — which is the objective a neighbour's objection to an overbearing extension is usually argued under.
