Proposed development

proposed amendments to consented residential development (MCC reg. ref. 23527) at a site at Drumree Road, Readsland, Dunshaughlin, Co. Meath. The site lies generally to the south of the existing Dún Ríoga housing development, and is bounded to the north by the existing Dún Ríoga residential estate; to the east by Dunshaughlin Gaelic Grounds; to the west by the R125 Dunshaughlin Link Road and to the south by lands currently in agricultural use. The proposed amendments to the consented scheme relate to the apartment building (Block 1), within that part of the site measuring c.0.34 hectares adjacent to the R125 Dunshaughlin Link Road, and comprise: • Omission of the 4th (top) floor, resulting in a reduction in building height from a permitted 5-storey to a proposed 4-storey apartment building. • Reduction from consented 35no. apartment units (14no. 1-bed, 16no. 2-bed and 5no. 3-bed units) to proposed 34no. apartment units (12no. 1-bed and 22no. 2-bed), with provision of an additional stair and lift core and building entrances, and ancillary individual balconies on all building elevations. • New standalone bin store (c.36.3 sq m) to the west of revised Block 1. • Localised adjustment to associated and ancillary site and landscape works, including: c.7 sq m reduction in public open space and c.28 sq m reduction in communal open space; omission of 1no. car parking space and addition of 1no. disabled car parking space; and, omission of 7no. bicycle parking spaces. All other consented development, including the 27no. houses, new 4-arm roundabout junction on the R125 Dunshaughlin Link Road and Dun Rioga Avenue, and wider associated and ancillary site development, landscaping and boundary treatment works, remain unchanged under MCC Reg. Ref. 23527
