13.3.6 Development Contributions

Dublin City Council may, when granting planning permission, attach conditions requiring the payment of contribution(s) in respect of public infrastructure and facilities, benefiting development in its area.

Details of such contributions must be set out in the Council’s Development Contribution Scheme, and in Supplementary Development Contribution Schemes, where relevant, which are available to view on www.dublincity.ie.

Furthermore, planning authorities may also attach further conditions requiring the payment of a special contribution, in the case of a particular development where specific exceptional costs not covered by the Development Contribution Scheme are incurred in respect of public infrastructure and facilities which benefit the development.
