THE DUBLIN CITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2005-2011
(VARIATION NO. 30)
Notice is hereby given pursuant to Section 13 of the Planning and Development Acts 2000-2006 that Dublin City Council, being the Planning Authority for Dublin City, has prepared a proposed Draft Variation of the Dublin City Development Plan 2005-2011 in respect of the following:
To include definitions of both “off-licence” and “part off-licence”, to set out whether these uses are permissible or open for consideration within each zoning objective and to provide policy guidelines to manage the development of these uses in the city.
The purpose of the proposed variation is, (i) to include these uses within the Dublin City Development Plan 2005 – 2011, as since the introduction of the Planning and Development Regulations 2005 both off-licence and part off-licence became distinct uses, no longer included in the definition of a shop, and, (ii) to provide guidelines which regulate the development of off-licences and part off-licences.
A copy of the proposed Draft Variation will be available for inspection at the Civic Offices, Wood Quay, Dublin 8 from Monday to Friday (excluding Bank Holidays) between the hours of 09.00 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. from Thursday, 10th July, 2008 to Wednesday, 6th August, 2008 (both dates inclusive).
Details are also available on the City Council’s website at www.dublincity.ie
Written submissions or observations in relation to the proposed Draft Variation made to the Planning Authority within the above said period will be taken into consideration before the making of a decision on the Draft Variation. Such submissions or observations should be addressed to:
Tom Vaughan, Planning Department, Civic Offices, Wood Quay, Dublin 8 or via email to planning@dublincity.ie
