Proposed development

PERMISSION & RETENTION: Retention permission and planning permission is sought for alterations to a development originally approved under Reg. Ref. 4596/18. The approved development (Reg. Ref. 4596/18) provided for 6 no. residential apartments at first and second floor levels with a restaurant/coffee shop with ancillary takeaway at ground floor level of 81-82 Dorset Street Lower, Dublin 1. The as construction layouts at first and second floor levels of the subject site comprise a total of 10 no. residential units, with 5 no. units located at first floor level and 5 no. units located at second floor level. Retention permission is therefore sought for: (i) alterations to the approved layouts at first and second floor levels together with the uplift in apartments from 6 no. (as approved) to 10 no. (current layout). The current application seeks to reduce the number of apartment units from 10 no. (current layout) to 8 no. Planning permission is therefore sought for: (ii) internal modifications and reconfiguration of the first and second floor levels to provide for a total of 8 no. apartment units as follows: (a) 3 no. studio units and 1 no. 1 bedroom apartment at first floor level; and (b) 3 no. studio units and 1 no. 1 bedroom apartment at second floor level. Planning permission is also sought for (iii) all associated works including boundary treatments, drainage and engineering works necessary to facilitate the development. The alterations proposed result in the provision of a total of 8 no. apartment units, increased from 6 no. as originally approved under Reg. Ref. 4596/18, and reduced from 10 no. as per the current layout.
