Chanel College Development
Parnell's have put in a new planning application for development on the lands in Chanel College. Their previous application made a few weeks ago was rejected for technical reasons and a new submission was made on the 27th July 2009. The plan number is 3563/09.
Where can I find out more?
You may view the plans at the Civic Offices on Wood Quay. The office is open 9 am to 4.30 pm, Mon-Fri (open through lunch).
Some of the plans may also be viewed on the Dublin City Council's site. Please note, generally not all of the planning file is available on the website.
For your convenience I've uploaded some of the key documents here:
- Full text of the Chanel College Application
- Map of the relevant area
- Coolock Residents Association Consultation Report
What if I decide I want to make an objection or observation?
Residents have until Thursday 31st August to make an objection or observation in writing. The cost of this is €20. They may do so by writing to the Planning Department, Dublin City Council, Civic Offices, Wood Quay, Dublin 8 quoting reference number 3563/09 and outlining their observations or reasons for objecting.
What happens next?
The planners for this area visit the site to assess the impact of the proposal, and to establish if the plans comply with the zoning for the site, planning legislation and guidelines, and the provisions of the Dublin City Development Plan 2005-2011. As part of this, they consider all objections and observations they have received.
In a few weeks, they may reject or approve the proposal or they may seek additional information from the developer which could prolong a decision for several more weeks or even months. Ultimately, whatever they decide may be appealed to An Bord Pleanála by the developer or by objectors.
