By Maurice Garvey

CITYWEST Homes Development has submitted a planning application with South Dublin County Council for a residential development containing 112 dwellings on the site at the junction of Citywest Road and Garter Avenue.

The plans contain proposals for 112 units comprising 90 two-storey houses, along with 22 one- and two-bed apartments in a four-storey apartment building.

The proposed development includes associated site works at a 3.74 hectare site, with car parking, bin storage, open spaces and landscaping.

Access to the development will be via two vehicular entrances from Garter Avenue.

The site is bounded to the east by the N82 Citywest Road, to the north-west by Garter Avenue and to the south by lands that will be developed as a neighbourhood park in accordance with the Fortunestown local area plan.

Citywest Homes Development was set up in 1994, and the company’s current directors are Brendan Hickey and Hugh Lynn.
The council is due to make a decision by August 8.
