Traders pub developer appeals council decision

By William O' Connor 

THE DEVELOPER of the former Traders Pub and McHugh’s Shopping Arcade has launched an appeal with An Bord Pleanala against South Dublin County Council’s decision for revisions to its original planning application.

Located at St James’ Road and Limekiln Green in Greenhills, Double E Investments Ltd were looking to increase area size of retail Unit 1 and increase the number of residential units to 48.

The residential units consist of 24 one bed apartments; 24 two bed apartments all above the retail element at first, second and third floor levels; telecommunications antenna and dishes at roof level.

There is no change to the overall number of parking spaces previously permitted under Ref. SD16A/0060; vehicular and pedestrian access to the retail/residential elements is via existing access point on St. James’s Road (northward) and Limekiln Green (eastward) with proposed pedestrian access (southward) via Limekiln Green at the site.
