    Zoning evaluated against the point

    R2 — Existing residential south dublin county development plan 2022 2028 · 8 Mar 20228 Mar 2028

    RES: To protect and/or improve residential amenity

    What that means: 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.

    • McGee Park, Cookstown Road, Springfield, Tallaght, Dublin 24 Unregistered application
      The upgrade of the Butler McGee Park will consist of: • Four formal entry plazas at: – the Cheeverstown Road and Cookstown Road junction, linking with Jobstown Park. – the Cookstown Road and Maplewood Road Junction – the northeastern corner of the park, adjacent to the southern boundary of St. Mark’s GAA club, leading out on to Cookstown Road. – the Drumcairn Avenue and Drumcairn Parade junction. • Main spine routes, shared pedestrian/cycle with formal signature trees and park lights, along the eastern boundary, linking Butler McGee Park to Jobstown Park and the Luas stops, and east-west through the park connecting Drumcairn with the Fortunestown Shopping Centre. • Controlled access gates to be installed at all entrances. • Provision of CCTV. • All existing sports pitches, except for Pitch 80, retained with some realignment and refurbished where necessary with drainage and re levelling. • Provision for active recreation – e.g. Teenspace, with facilities such as skate park (with floodlighting), basketball courts and fitness area, and natural play area with large climbing feature wall. • A Multi Use Games Area (MUGA) with floodlighting. • A 35m long x 6m high ball wall, with hard paving to one side and floodlighting • Activity circuit (Park Run) – with seats and play/fitness equipment. • A dog park enclosed with post and rail fencing with wire mesh. • Relocation of a 220m length of the northeastern boundary to incorporate the grass verge to the road into the park, allowing for more room between the proposed path and the pitches. • Biodiversity improvements - existing hedgerow relocated/replaced and supplemented with meadowland management and planting of bulbs and formal and informal tree groups. • Attenuation basins and possible swales associated with the pitch drainage which will also contribute to enhanced biodiversity. • All associated landscape works. • All ancillary works. The proposal has undergone Appropriate Assessment Screening under the Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC) and screening for Environmental Impact Assessment. The Planning Authority has made a preliminary examination of the nature, size and location of the proposed development. The authority has concluded that there is no real likelihood of significant effects on the environment arising from the proposed development and a determination has been made that an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is not required.

    PPR addresses are geocoded, not surveyed — a sale's position is as good as its address match (`rooftop_n` says how many are address-accurate). Beds, floor area, BER and asking price come from the matched daft.ie advertisement, not from the Register, and only where a match was found (`enriched_n`).
